    ME321A: Advanced Mechanics of Solids

    Note:

    1. As discussed in class, the answer must be written clearly with the same convention for
    tensor and vector.

    Pr 1: A spherical shell is made from an incompressible material. In its undeformed state,


    the inner and outer radii of the shell are A and B respectivelly. After deformation, the
    new values are a and b, respectively. The deformation in the shell are can be described
    by the equation

    xi
    yi = r ,
    R
    √
    where r = (R3 + a3 − A3 )1/3 and R = xk xk . Find the components of the deformation
    gradient tensor.
    Note that the deformation is radially symmetric and as such one is required to compute
    the determinant along any radial line.

    Pr 2: Given below are the components of a displacement field u = (u1 , u2 , u3 ),

    u1 = kx2 , u2 = u3 = 0,

    where x = (x1 , x2 , x3 ) is position vector.

    (a) Sketch the deformed shape of the unit square OABC. see Figure 1
    −→
    (b) Find ∇u, calculate vector a = (0, 1, 0) = OC after deformation and validate the answer
    by comparing it to sketch.

    Pr 3: An initially straight beam is bent into a circular arc with radius R. Material fibres
    that are perpendicular to the axis of the undeformed beam are assumed to remain
    perpendicular to the axis after deformation, and the beam’s thickness and the length
    of its axis are assumed to be unchanged. Under these conditions the deformation can
    be described as

    y1 = (R − x2 )sin(x1 /R), y2 = R − (R − x2 )cos(x1 /R)

    1
    Figure 1: Figure for Pr 2

    where x is the position vector of a material particle in the undeformed beam and y is
    the the position vector of the same particle after deformation.

    (a) Calculate the deformation gradient field in the beam.

    (b) Calculate the Lagrangian strain tensor.

    (c) Calculate the infinitesimal strain field in the beam.

    (d) Compare the value of Lagrangian strain tensor and infinitesimal strain tensor at the
    points (x1 = 0, x2 = h) and (x1 = L, x2 = 0).

    Pr 4: A unit cube with edges parallel to coordinate axes, is given a displacement field

    u1 = kx1 , u2 = u3 = 0, k = 10−4

    Figure 2: Figure for Pr 4

    Find increase in length of diagonal AB (Figure 2)

    2
    (a) By using small strain tensor
    (b) By geometry.

    Pr 5: A three-dimensional elasticity problem of a uniformed bar stretched under its own


    weight gives the following strain field:
     
    Az 0 0
     
     0 Az 0 
     
    0 0 Bz

    where A and B are constants. Integrate the strain-displacement relations to determine


    the displacement components.
