A consolidated-drained triaxial test is carried out on a sand specimen that is subjected to 80 kN/m2 confining pressure. The vertical deviator stress was increased slowly such that there is no built-up of pore water pressure within the specimen. The specimen failed when the addition axial stress reached 240 kN/m2. Find the friction angle of the sand. If another identical sand specimen was subjected to 150 kN/m2 confining pressure, what would be the deviator stress at failure.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) the friction angle of the sand is 36.87°

b) the deviator stress at failure is 450 kN/m³

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

For a consolidated drained test

The effective major principle stresses

σ₃ = σ₃' = 80 kN/m²

and

σ₁' = σ₃' + (Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = 80 kN/m² + 240 kN/m²  = 320 kN/m²

now

a) friction angle of the sand

σ₁' = σ₃'tan²( 45° + Ф/2' ) + 2c' tan( 45° + Ф/2 )

for sand; c' = 0

so

σ₁' = σ₃'tan²( 45° + Ф/2' )

we substitute

320 = 80 tan²( 45° + Ф/2' )

Ф' = 2 × [ tan⁻¹ (√[tex]\frac{320}{80}[/tex]) - 45° ]

Ф' = 2 × [ 63.4349° - 45° ]

Ф' = 2 × 18.4349

Ф' = 36.87°

Therefore,  the friction angle of the sand is 36.87°

b)  deviator stress

σ₁' = σ₃'tan²( 45° + Ф/2' )

σ₁' = σ₃' + (Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = σ₃'tan²( 45° + Ф/2' )

σ₃' + (Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = σ₃'tan²( 45° + Ф/2' )   3.597

150 + (Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = 150tan²( 45° + 36.87°/2 )

150 + (Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = 600

(Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex] = 600 - 150

(Δσ[tex]_{d}[/tex])[tex]_{f}[/tex]  = 450 kN/m³

Therefore, the deviator stress at failure is 450 kN/m³

A front wheel drive vehicle with four wheel disc brakes is pulling to the left. Tech A says an external kink or internal restriction in the LF brake line will result in this condition. Tech B says to use a compression fitting to repair a section of brake line. Who is correct? Tech A Tech A Tech B Tech B Both Both Neither

Answers

Answer:

Tech A is correct.          

Explanation:

A front-wheel-drive pulling to the left can result from several factors. One of them is definitely a faulty break.

A correct diagnosis linking the problem to the brakes is when there is an internal restriction and the pull is constant to one side and gets worse when the brakes are applied.

To confirm this, one would need to lift the vehicle and rotate each wheel by hand to check for excessive friction.

So the restriction may be caused by:

brake calipers that are sticky to the drumtoo much brake fluid in the brake master cylinder - this prevents the caliper pistons from retracting when the brakes are released misadjusted drum brakes and or parking brakes.

A brass alloy rod having a cross sectional area of 100 mm2 and a modulus of 110 GPa is subjected to a tensile load. Plastic deformation was observed to begin at a load of 39872 N. a. Determine the maximum stress that can be applied without plastic deformation. b. If the maximum length to which a specimen may be stretched without causing plastic deformation is 67.21 mm, what is the original specimen length

Answers

Answer:

a) the maximum stress that can be applied without plastic deformation is 398.72 N/mm²  

b) length of the specimen is 66.97 mm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) Determine the maximum stress that can be applied without plastic deformation

when know that; maximum stress σ[tex]_{max}[/tex]  = F / A

where F is the force in the rod ( 39872 N )

A is the cross-sectional area of the rod ( 100 mm² )

so we substitute;

σ[tex]_{max}[/tex]  = 39872 N / 100 mm²

σ[tex]_{max}[/tex]  = 398.72 N/mm²

Therefore, the maximum stress that can be applied without plastic deformation is 398.72 N/mm²  

b)  

strain in the members can be calculated using the expression

ε = σ / E

where σ is the stress in the rod

E is the module of elasticity (  110 GPa = 110000 N/mm² )

(Sl-L) / L = σ/E

where Sl-L is the change in length of the member

L is the original length of the specimen

so we substitute

(67.21 - L) / L = 398.72 / 110000

110000( 67.21 - L) = 398.72L

7393100 - 110000L = 398.72L

7393100 = 398.72L+ 110000L

7393100 = 110398.72L

L = 7393100 / 110398.72

L = 66.97 mm

Therefore; length of the specimen is 66.97 mm

A river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 M3/s. This river has three tributaries, tributary A, B and C, which account for 36%, 47% and 17% of water flow respectively. How much water is discharged in 30 minutes from tributary B?

Answers

Answer:

50421.6 m³

Explanation:

The river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 m³/s.

Tributary B accounts for 47% of the rate of water flow. Therefore the rate of water flow through tributary B is:

Flow rate of water through tributary B = 47% of 59.6 m³/s = 0.47 * 59.6 m³/s = 28.012 m³/s

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B = Flow rate of water through tributary B * time taken

time = 30 minutes = 30 minutes * 60 seconds / minute = 1800 seconds

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B in 30 seconds = 28.012 m³/s * 1800 seconds = 50421.6 m³
