A cross beam in a highway bridge experiences a stress of 14 ksi due to the dead weight of the bridge structure. When a fully loa

ded tractor-trailer crosses over the bridge, however, the stress in the beam increases to 45 ksi. The beam is fabricated from steel with an ultimate tensile strength of 76 ksi, a yield strength of 50 ksi, and an endurance limit of 38 ksi. Find the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life:
a. if the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored
b. when the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is considered.

Answer:

a) 2.452

b) 1.256

Explanation:

Stress due to dead weight. = 14 Ksi

Stress due to fully loaded tractor-trailer = 45Ksi

ultimate tensile strength of beam = 76 Ksi

yield strength = 50 Ksi

endurance limit = 38 Ksi

Determine the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life

a) If mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored

β = ( 45 - 14 ) / 2

  = 15.5 Ksi

hence FOS ( factor of safety ) = endurance limit / β

                                                 = 38 / 15.5 = 2.452

b) When mean stress on fatigue strength is considered

β2 = 45 + 14 / 2

    = 29.5 Ksi

Ratio  = β / β2 = 15.5 / 29.5 = 0.5254

Next step: applying Goodman method

Sa =  [ ( 0.5254 * 38 *76 ) / ( 0.5254*76 + 38 ) ]

     = 19.47 Ksi

hence the FOS ( factor of safety ) = Sa / β

                                                      = 19.47 / 15.5 = 1.256

• Suppose that a particular algorithm has time complexity T(n) = 10 ∗ 2n, and that execution of the algorithm on a particular ma
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The number of inputs processed by the new machine is 64

Solution:

As per the question:

The time complexity is given by:

T(n) = 10\times 2n

where

n = number of inputs

T = Time taken by the machine for 'n' inputs

Also

The new machine is 65 times faster than the one currently in use.

Let us assume that the new machine takes the same time to solve k operations.

Then

T(k) = 64 T(n)

\frac{T(k)}{T(n)} = 64

\frac{20k}{20n} = 64

k = 64n

Thus the new machine will process 64 inputs in the time duration T
