AE 321 Solution of Homework #11

Solution #1

(a)

It does satisfy but it gives a trivial solution for stresses. Using Cauchys equation
we find that .



(b)

It satisfies . This means that satisfies the requirement for an Airy Stress function.





The tractions are





Same with (-) sign on the negative sides x=-l/2 & y=-h/2.

Solution #2

For a cylinder with internal and external pressure we have:



This is a plane-stress solution which can be converted into plane-strain by substituting:
















For the inner cylinder:


For the outer cylinder:


Hence, we can compute the radial displacements for the two cylinders by substituting the values
of r
1
, r
2
, P
i
and P
o
from (2) in equation (1). The radial displacement for the inner cylinder is u
r
I
and for the outer cylinder is u
r
II
.

The schematic below shows the inner and the outer cylinders after they are shrunk-fit. The inner
cylinder is marked in blue and the boundaries are denoted by dashed blue lines. The outer
cylinder is marked in grey and boundaries are denoted by bold black lines.

u
r
I
is the radial displacement for the inner cylinder. It is negative because positive radial direction
is always pointing outwards from the origin O. u
r
II
is the radial displacement for the outer
cylinder.

The two cylinders get shrink-fitted along the red dash-dot line.
