Segments AB and CD of the assembly are solid circular rods, and
segment BC is a tube. If the assembly is made of 6061-T6 aluminum

Strain Energy
If no energy is lost: the
external work done by
the loads → converted converted
into internal work
called strain energy
which is caused by the
action of either normal

Review problems
The assembly shown in Fig.a consists of an
aluminum tube AB having a cross-sectional area of
400 mm2. A steel rod having a diameter of 10 mm is
attached to a rigid collar and passes through the
tube. If a tensile load of 80 kN is applied to the rod,
determine the displacement of the end C of the
rod. Take Est = 200 Gpa, Eal = 70 GPa.
Rigid beam AB rests on the two short posts shown in Fig. a .
AC is made of steel and has a diameter of 20 mm, and BD is
made of aluminum and has a diameter of 40 mm. Determine
the displacement of point F on AB if a vertical load of 90 kN
is applied over this point. Take Est = 200 GPa, Eal = 70 GPa.
The rigid bar is supported by the pinconnected rod CB that has a crosssectional area of 14 mm2. Determine the
vertical deflection of the bar at D when
the distributed load is applied
