Thus, from formulas (3) there is follows, that for experimental estimation of critical
force it is necessary to plot the diagram P cr 1 W 2 (fig. 3).

The sample is fixed in installation by tightening screws. The cargo screw creates the
compressing effort. The indicator measures the deflection of a plate.
1. You should write down heading of this laboratory work, your surname, date, draw
specimen with dimensions and its grip condition.
2. Calculate critical normal stress for a researched sample by the formula (1) (module
of elasticity for duralumin plate to accept E = 72 GPa, thickness of a plate = 0.5 mm).
You must right choose K from diagram (fig. 2) according to ratio of the sides of a plate
and grip condition. Theoretically we have three type of grip condition: free side, fixed
side and pinned side. So you do not know real grip condition you should choose two most
credible grip conditions and calculate for them critical stresses.
3. You must gradually to increase effort with the help of the cargo screw to remove
(take off) the indications of the indicator at load 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 kg. Plot the
experimental diagram (fig. 3). Compute experimental value of critical force (5) by any point
on straight line (fig. 3).
4. Compare theoretical and experimental values of the critical stress, to calculate a
relative error. Issue the report, to hand over to the teacher. The error is estimated by the
formula:
crE cr
2 E
100 [%],
cr cr
where crT - is value critical stress from test (5); crE - is value critical stress by Eulers
formula (1).
5. Choose theoretical grip condition which is closer to real grip condition by result of
experiment.
Requirements to the contents of the report
The report should contain:
1. Heading (number and the name of laboratory work, number of group and a
surname of the student, date, the purposes and tasks of work).
2. You should plot drawings of specimen and experimental installation.
3. Results of theoretical calculation for critical stress in different grip conditions
4. You should plot the experimental diagram and estimate experimental value
of critical stress.
5. You should compare experimental and theoretical values of critical stress and
choose theoretical grip condition which is closer to real grip condition by result of
experiment.
