A wing component on an aircraft is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 27 . It has b

een determined that fracture results at a stress of 112 when the maximum internal crack length is 8.8 . For this same component and alloy, compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 6.2 .

Answer:

The stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 6.2mm is 135.78MPa

Explanation:

Given data;

Let,

critical stress required for initiating crack propagation Cc = 112MPa

plain strain fracture toughness = 27.0MPa

surface length of the crack = a

dimensionless parameter = Y.

Half length of the internal crack, a = length of surface crack/2 = 8.8/2 = 4.4mm = 4.4*10-³m

Also for 6.2mm length of surface crack;

Half length of the internal crack = length of surface crack/2 = 6.2/2 = 3.1mm = 3.1*10-³m

The dimensionless parameter

Cc = Kic/(Y*√pia*a)

Y = Kic/(Cc*√pia*a)

Y = 27/(112*√pia*4.4*10-³)

Y = 2.05

Now,

Cc = Kic/(Y*√pia*a)

Cc = 27/(2.05*√pia*3.1*10-³)

Cc = 135.78MPa

The stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 6.2mm is 135.78MPa

For more understanding, I have provided an attachment to the solution.

Air is flowing steadily through a cooling section where it is cooled from 30 °C to 15 °C at a rate of 0.25 kg/s.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

$C_{day} = 2.261\,USD$

Explanation:

The heat transfer rate rejected to the refrigeration system is:

$\dot Q_{L} = (0.25\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot (1.005\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (30\,^{\textdegree}C-15\,^{\textdegree}C)$

$\dot Q_{L} = 3.768\,kW$

The electric power needed to make refrigeration possible is:

$\dot W = \frac{\dot Q_{L}}{COP_{R}}$

$\dot W = \frac{3.768\,kW}{2.8}$

$\dot W = 1.346\,kW$

The daily energy consumption is:

$\Delta E_{day} = (1.346\,kW)\cdot (86400\,s)$

$\Delta E_{day} = 116294.4\,kJ$

$\Delta E_{day} = 32.304\,kWh$

The cost of electricity consumed by the air-conditioner per day is:

$C_{day} = c\cdot \Delta E_{day}$

$C_{day} = (0.07\,\frac{USD}{kWh} )\cdot (32.304\,kWh)$

$C_{day} = 2.261\,USD$

An aluminum part will be subjected to cyclic loading where the maximum stress will be 300 MPa and the minimum stress will be-100

Dominik [7]

Answer:

a) The mean stress experimented by the aluminium part is 100 megapascals, b) The stress amplitude of the aluminium part is 400 megapascals, c) The stress ratio of the aluminium part is 4.

Explanation:

a) The mean stress is determined by this expression:

$\sigma_{m} = \frac{\sigma_{min}+\sigma_{max}}{2}$

Where:

$\sigma_{m}$ - Mean stress, measured in megapascals.

$\sigma_{min}$ - Minimum stress, measured in megapascals.

$\sigma_{max}$ - Maximum stress, measured in megapascals.

If we know that $\sigma_{min} = -100\,MPa$ and $\sigma_{max} = 300\,MPa$ , the mean stress is:

$\sigma_{m} = \frac{-100\,MPa+300\,MPa}{2}$

$\sigma_{m} = 100\,MPa$

The mean stress experimented by the aluminium part is 100 megapascals.

b) The stress amplitude is given by the following difference:

$\sigma_{a} = |\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}|$

Where $\sigma_{a}$ is the stress amplitude, measured in megapascals.

If we know that $\sigma_{min} = -100\,MPa$ and $\sigma_{max} = 300\,MPa$ , the stress amplitude is:

$\sigma_{a} = |300\,MPa-(-100\,MPa)|$

$\sigma_{a} = 400\,MPa$

The stress amplitude of the aluminium part is 400 megapascals.

c) The stress ratio ( $R$ ) is the ratio of the stress amplitude to mean stress. That is:

$R = \frac{\sigma_{a}}{\sigma_{m}}$

If we know that $\sigma_{m} = 100\,MPa$ and $\sigma_{a} = 400\,MPa$ , the stress ratio is:

$R = \frac{400\,MPa}{100\,MPa}$

$R = 4$

The stress ratio of the aluminium part is 4.

Do plastic materials have high or low ductility? Explain why.

Flura [38]

The impact behavior of plastic materials is strongly dependent upon the temperature. At high temperatures, materials are more ductile and have high impact toughness. At low temperatures, some plastics that would be ductile at room temperature become brittle.
