A thin rectangular steel plate 100 mm by 50 mm undergoes deformations 0.05 mm and 0.01 mm in x and y directions due to stresses a,\sigma _x and \sigma _y as shown in Fig. 1.32. Determine the magnitude of \sigma _x and \sigma _y if modulus of elasticity is 200 GPa and Poisson’s ratio is 0.3.

The blue check mark means that this solution has been answered and checked by an expert. This guarantees that the final answer is accurate.

It is plane stress problem where,
\varepsilon_x=\frac{0.05}{100}=0.005 mm / mm , and
\varepsilon_y=\frac{0.01}{50}=0.0002 mm / mmSubstituting in Eq. (1.231),
\sigma_x =\frac{E}{1-\mu^2}\left(\varepsilon_x+\mu \varepsilon_y\right)=\frac{200000}{1-0.3^2}(0.0005+0.3 \times 0.0002) =123.07 MPa
\sigma_y =\frac{E}{1-\mu^2}\left(\varepsilon_y+\mu \varepsilon_x\right)
=\frac{200000}{1-0.3^2}(0.0002+03 \times 0.0005) =76.92 MPa
