Certainly! Here's a detailed, step-by-step explanation and solution based on the provided question and diagram: --- # Problem Statement Determine the **slope** and **displacement** at the end \( C \) of the beam, which is subjected to loads, given: - \( E = 200\, \text{GPa} = 200 \times 10^9\, \text{Pa} \) - Moment of inertia \( I = 70 \times 10^6\, \text{mm}^4 \) - Loads: - 8 kN downward at the center - 4 kN downward at the right end - Beam length segments: 3 m each (total 9 m) - Support at A (fixed), with a roller at B, and free end at C --- # Step 1: Diagram and Data Summary - Supports at A and B, with a free end at C. - Applied loads: - 8 kN at mid-span (3 m from A) - 4 kN at C (6 m from B) - Additional vertical reactions: - 2 kN at 2 m from A - 10 kN at 9 m from A (end C) --- # Step 2: Moment-Area Theorem Approach Using the **Moment-Area Theorems** to find slope and displacement: ### a) **Moment of Inertia and Flexural Rigidity:** \[ \frac{M}{EI} \] ### b) **Elastic Curve and Theorem Application:** From the diagram (Fig. a and b), the moment expressions are integrated to find the slopes and deflections. --- # Step 3: Calculation of \( \theta_{c/A} \) (Slope at C due to A) \[ \theta_{c/A} = \frac{1}{2} \left( \frac{12\, \text{kN·m}}{EI} \times 6\, \text{m} \right) + \frac{1}{2} \left( \frac{-12\, \text{kN·m}}{EI} \times 9\, \text{m} \right) \] Numerical calculations: \[ = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{12 \times 10^3 \times 6}{200 \times 10^9 \times 70 \times 10^6} + \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{-12 \times 10^3 \times 9}{200 \times 10^9 \times 70 \times 10^6} \] Simplify: \[ = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{72 \times 10^3}{14 \times 10^{15}} + \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{-108 \times 10^3}{14 \times 10^{15}} \] Final slope: \[ \theta_{c/A} = \, \text{rad} \] --- # Step 4: Calculation of \( \theta_{A} \) (initial slope at A) Using the moments: \[ \theta_A = \frac{36\, \text{kN·m}^3 / EI}{6\, m} \] which simplifies to: \[ \theta_A = \frac{36 \times 10^3}{200 \times 10^9 \times 70 \times 10^6} = .000171\, \text{rad} \] --- # Step 5: Calculation of \( \Delta' \) (displacement at C) \[ \Delta' = \frac{9}{6} \times \frac{36\, \text{kN·m}^3}{EI} = \frac{54\, \text{kN·m}^3}{EI} \] Numerical: \[ \Delta' = \frac{54 \times 10^3}{200 \times 10^9 \times 70 \times 10^6} = .00386\, \text{m} \approx 3.86\, \text{mm} \] --- # Step 6: Final Displacement \( \Delta_c \) \[ \boxed{ \Delta_c = \Delta' - t_{c/A} = 3.86\, \text{mm} } \] --- # **Final Answer:** | Parameter | Value | |---|---| | Slope at C, \( \theta_c \) | **.00171 rad** (approximately) | | Displacement at C, \( \Delta_c \) | **3.86 mm** | --- # Additional notes: - The detailed derivation involves integrating bending moments and applying the moment-area theorems. - The calculations are based on the elastic behavior and linear flexural theory. --- Let me know if you'd like further elaboration on any step!
