A fill covering a wide area is to be placed at the surface of this profile. The fill has a total unit weight of 20 kN/m^3 and is

3 m thick. Assume that the data for the sample at 7.0 m are representative of the entire clay profile. Also assume that the clay is heavily over consolidated and that the danse sands at the surface of the profile are so stiff that they do not contribute to the settlement. Find the settlement of the surface due to compression of the clay layer

The section should span between 10.9 and 13.4 cm (4.30 and 5.30 inches) as measured from the end supports and should be able to
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

hello below is missing piece of the complete question

minimum size = 0.3 cm

answer : 0.247 N/mm2

Explanation:

Given data :

section span : 10.9 and 13.4 cm

minimum load applied evenly to the top of span  : 13 N

maximum load for each member ; 4.5 N

lets take each member to be 4.2 cm

Determine the max value of P before truss fails

Taking average value of section span ≈ 12 cm

Given minimum load distributed evenly on top of section span = 13 N  

we will calculate the value of   by applying this formula

= \frac{Wl^2}{12}  =  (0.013 * 0.0144 )/ 12  =  1.56 * 10^-5

next we will consider section ; 4.2 cm * 0.3 cm

hence Z (section modulus ) = BD^2 / 6  

                                             = ( 0.042 * 0.003^2 ) / 6  = 6.3*10^-8

Finally the max value of P( stress ) before the truss fails

= M/Z = ( 1.56 * 10^-5 ) / ( 6.3*10^-8 )  

          = 0.247 N/mm2

An alloy is evaluated for potential creep deformation in a short-term laboratory experiment. The creep rate (ϵ˙) is found to be
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Activation energy for creep in this temperature range is Q = 252.2 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To calculate the creep rate at a particular temperature

creep rate, \zeta_{\theta} = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{R \theta} )

Creep rate at 800⁰C, \zeta_{800} = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{R (800+273)} )

\zeta_{800} = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{1073R} )\\\zeta_{800} = 1 \% per hour =0.01\\

0.01 = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{1073R} ).........................(1)

Creep rate at 700⁰C

\zeta_{700} = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{R (700+273)} )

\zeta_{800} = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{973R} )\\\zeta_{800} = 5.5 * 10^{-2}  \% per hour =5.5 * 10^{-4}

5.5 * 10^{-4}  = C \exp(\frac{-Q}{1073R} ).................(2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2)

\frac{0.01}{5.5 * 10^{-4} } = \exp[\frac{-Q}{1073R} -\frac{-Q}{973R} ]\\18.182= \exp[\frac{-Q}{1073R} +\frac{Q}{973R} ]\\R = 8.314\\18.182= \exp[\frac{-Q}{1073*8.314} +\frac{Q}{973*8.314} ]\\18.182= \exp[0.0000115 Q]\\

Take the natural log of both sides

ln 18.182= 0.0000115Q\\2.9004 = 0.0000115Q\\Q = 2.9004/0.0000115\\Q = 252211.49 J/mol\\Q = 252.2 kJ/mol
