Acylindrical metal specimen having an original diameter of 11.80 mm and gauge length of 51.7 mm is pulled in tension until fracture occurs. the diameter at the point of fracture is 6.67 mm, and the fractured gauge length is 68.1 mm. calculate the ductility in terms of (a) percent reduction in area (percent ra), and (b) percent elongation (percent

Determine the damped natural frequencies and the steady state response of a decoupled damped forced two degrees of freedom system. 10ä1 + 2q1 20q1 10 cos t; 10q2 +4q2 + 40q2 10 cos t

What is the heat treatment of metals? what is the benefit of it? why and how it's useful? answer in details, do not write by hand.

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg. m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
