JAWAHARLAL NEHRU TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY HYDERABAD B.Tech (CCC) I Year Supplementary Examinations July/August - 2010 MECHANICS OF SOLIDS (Civil Engineering) Time: 3 Hours Answer Any Five Questions All Questions Carry Equal Marks --1.a) b) Show that the difference of principal strains = max shear strain. Derive expressions for principal stresses in terms of principal strains, Poissons ratio modulus of elasticity. [8+12] State Mises-Henky theory of max. shear strain energy. Derive the expression for strain energy of distortion. Hence give the failure criterion and design criterion. Max.Marks:100

2.a) b) c) 3.

At a certain cross section of a shaft 100 mm in dia; there is a B.M. of 5 kN-m and a twisting moment of 7.5 kN-m. Calculate the max. direct stress induced and specify the position of the plane on which it acts. [20] A close coiled helical spring can absorb 30 N m of energy with an extension of 150 mm. The mean dia. of coil is 12 times wire dia. If the max. Shear stress set up in the spring is not to exceed 100N/mm2 determine the mean dia. of coil, wire dia, and the number of turns. [20] A short C.I. Pillar 80mm in external dia and 10mm thick carrys a load of 200kN. If the load deviates from the center by 20mm calculate the extreme intensities of stress induced in the section. What deviation will just cause tension in the pillar? Sketch the stress distribution. [20]

What is degree of in determinancy in trusses? Explain with examples. Explain method of tension coefficients and explain why it is preferred to analyse the trusses? [20] A spherical shell of 90 mm internal dia. has to withstand an internal pressure of 35N/mm2. Find the thickness of shell required, the max. permissible tensile [20] stress is 80N/mm2. What do you understand by centroidal principal axes and principal moments of of inertia. Determine the principal moments of inertia for an unequal angle section [10+10] 80 60 10mm. ******
