Question 1
A torsion bar (𝐿𝐴𝐵=0.16 m) is fixed at end A; a lever arm (𝐿𝐵𝐶=0.20 m) is welded rigidly onto the other end at B. A force, 𝐹 = 5.9 kN, is applied vertically at the end of the lever arm at point C.
Torsion bar: kN.m2;
kN.m2
Lever arm: kN.m2
a) Solve the strain energy in the system, considering the energy due to bending moments and torsion only.
