Q.No. Questions

1.

What do you mean by thermal stress? (Apr/May 2015) BTL2

Thermal stresses are the stresses induced in a body due to change in temperature. Thermal stresses

are set up in a body, when the temperature of the body is raised or lowered and the body is not

allowed to expand or contract freely.

2

Draw the Mohr’s circle for the state of pure shear in a strained body and mark all salient

points in it. (Apr/May 2015) BTL3

3

Differentiate Elasticity and elastic limit. (Nov/Dec 2015) BTL1

The property by virtue of which certain materials return back to their original position after the

removal of the external force is called as elasticity.

Thers is limiting value of force up to and within which, the deformation completely disappears on

the removal of force. The value of stress corresponding to this limiting force is called as elastic

limit.

4

What is principle of super position? (Nov/Dec 2015) BTL3

The principle of superposition simply states that on a linear elastic structure, the combined effect

of several loads acting simultaneously is equal to the algebraic sum of the effects of each load

acting individually.

5

Obtain the relation between E and K. (May/June 2016) BTL3

𝐸 = 3𝐾(1 − 2𝜇) Where,

E = Young’s Modulus in N/m2.

K = Bulk Modulus in N/m2.

µ = Poisson’s Ratio.

6

Define Young’s modulus. (Nov/Dec 2016) BTL1

Young's modulus is a mechanical property that measures the stiffness of a solid material. It defines

the relationship between stress (force per unit area) and strain (proportional deformation) in a

material in the linear elasticity regime of a uniaxial deformation.

7

What do you mean by principal planes and principal stress? (May/June 2016) , (Nov/Dec

2016), (Nov/Dec 2017) BTL2

The plane where the maximum normal stress exist and the value of shear stress is zero is called

principal plane and these maximum positive and maximum negative value of normal stresses are

known as principal stress.

8

9 What does the radius of Mohr’s circle refer to? (Apr/May 2017) BTL1

Radius of Mohr’s Circle is equal to the maximum shear stress.

10

What is Hooke’s law? BTL1

Within the elastic limit, when a body is loaded, then stress induced is proportional to the strain.

This is called Hooke’s law.

Define Shear stress and Shear strain. BTL2

When two equal and opposite force act tangential on any cross section plane of a body tending to

slide on part of the body over the other part, the stress induced is called shear stress and the

corresponding strain is known as shear strain.

13

What is a compound bar? BTL3

A bar made up of two or more different materials, joined together is called a compound bar or

composite bar. The bars are joined in such a manner, that the system extends or contracts as a single

unit, equally when subjected to tension or compression.

14

What is a bulk modulus? (Nov/Dec2017) BTL2

When a body is stressed, the ratio of direct stress to the correspoding volumetric strain is constant

within elastic limit. This constant is called as Bulk modulus. It is denoted by K.

What is meant by strain energy and proof resilience?. BTL2

Strain energy: During deformation of a body some work is done by the internal resistance

developed in the body which is stored in the form of energy. This energy is known as strain

energy. Unit is N-m.

(i) Draw stress strain curve for mild steel and explain the salient points on it. (7M) (Apr/May

2017) BTL 2

If tensile force is applied to a steel bar it will have some extension. If the force is small the ratio of

the stress and strain will remain proportional. And the graph will be a straight line ( up to point A)

So the 0 to point A is the limit of proportionality.

If the force is considerably large the material will experience elastic deformation but the ratio of

stress and strain will not be proportional. (point A to B). This is the elastic limit. Beyond that point

the material will experience plastic deformation. The point where plastic deformations starts is the

yield point which is show in the figure as point B.

0 B is the upper yield point. Resulting graph will not be straight line anymore. C is the lower yield

point. D is the maximum ultimate stress. E is the breaking stress.

Q.No. Questions

1.

Define: (a) Shearing force, (b) Bending moment. (Apr/May 2015) BTL2

(a) Shear force: Shear force at a cross section is defined as the algebraic sum of all the forces

acting on either side of the beam.

(b) Bending moment: Bending moment at a cross section is the algebraic sum of the moments

of all the forces which are placed either side from that point.

2

What is neutral axis of a beam section? How do you locate it when a beam is under simple

bending? (Apr/May 2015) BTL3

It is the axis or layer of the beam where the bending stress is zero. It is normally located at the

centre of gravity point of the cross section of the beam.

3

Write the assumption in the theory of simple bending? (Nov/Dec 2015), (Nov/Dec 2016)

BTL1

The material is perfectly homogeneous and isotropic and obey’s hooke’s law.

The Young’s modulus is same in tension and well as compression.

Transverse section which are plane before bending remains plane after bending.

Raduis of curvature of the beam is very large compared to the cross section.

The resultant force on a transverse section of the beam is zero.

4 What are the types of beams? (Nov/Dec 2015) BTL3

Beams are classified based upon supports as: (a) cantilever beam, (b) simply supported beam, (c)

overhanging beam, (d) fixed beam, (e) continuous beam, (f) propped cantilever beam.

5

Discuss the fixed and hinged support. (May/June 2016) BTL2

Fixed Support: When a beam is completely fixed or built in wall, the support is called as fixed or

built in support. It has horizontal reaction, vertical reaction as well as moment.

Hinged support: A body is said to be hinged or pin joined when connected to rotating body. The

reaction at the hinged support may be either vertical or horizontal or inclined based on the

loading. But the ends are not restained against rotation at the support.

6

What are the advantages of flitched beams? (May/June 2016) BTL3

A composite section beam may be defined as a beam made up of two or more different materials

joined together in such a manner that they behave like a single piece and material bends to the

same radius of curvature.

State the theory of simple bending. BTL1

When a beam is subjected to bending load, the bottom most layer is subjected to tensile stress and

top most layer is subjected to compressive stress. The neutral layer is subjected to neither

compressive stress nor tensile stress. The stress at a point in the section of the beam is directly

proportional to its distance from the neutral axis.

11

What is meant by section modulus? (May2012) BTL2

It is defined as the ratio of moment of inertia of the section to the distance of the extreme layer

from the neutral axis. It is denoted by Z.

Z = 𝐼

It is defined as the point at which bending moment changes to zero. It occurs mostly in

overhanging beam.

13

In a simply supported beam how will you locate point of maximum bending moment. BTL2

The bending moment is maximum when shear force is zero. Write SF equation at that point and

equating to zero we can find out the distances ‘x’ from one end. Then find maximum bending

moment at that point by taking all moment on right or left hand side of the beam.

Three beams have the same length, the same allowable stress and the same bending moment.

circle. Find the ratios of weights of circular and the rectangular beams with respect to the

square beam. (13M) Apr/May 2015) BTL3

Derive a relation for deflection of a closely coiled helical spring subjected o an axial

compressive load ‘W’. (15M) (Apr/May 2017) BTL4

Close-coiled helical springs are the springs in which helix angle is very small or in other words

the pitch between two adjacent turns is small. A close-coiled helical spring carrying an axial load

is shown below. As the helix angle in case of close-ooiled helical springs are small, hence the

bending effect on the spring is ignored and we assume that the coils of a close-coiled helical

springs are to stand purely torsional stresses.

Let

d = Diameter of spring wire

p = Pitch ofths helical spring

n = Number of coils

R = Mean radius of spring ooil

W = Axial load on spring

C = Modulus of rigidity

τ = Max. shear stress induced in the Wire

θ = Angle oftwist in spring wire, and

δ = Deflection of spring due to axial load

l= Length of wire.

Now twisting moment on the wire,
