ME 201 Engineering Mechanics: Statics Chapter 5 Equilibrium
Equilibrium or equilibrium Balance of forces Prevents translation Balance of moments Prevents rotation =0 M =0 We will use both scalar (2D) and vector (3D) analysis methods
ree Body Diagrams 1. Sketch shape free from constraints & connections 2. Include external forces and couples Applied loadings Reactions at supports Weight of the body 3. Include dimensions
Common Support Reactions Simple Support Pin or Hinge Support ixed Support
Solving Problems Begin with BD (ree Body Diagram) Use Equations of Equilibrium to formulate equations containing unknown forces, reactions, & moments x =0 y =0 M o =0 Solve simultaneous equations (or look for equation with single unknown)
2-orce Members If the following conditions exist orce applied at only 2 points on member No couples Called a 2-force member Then The line of action passes through points A & B A is equal and opposite in magnitude and direction to B Rotational or moment equilibrium B B A A A B
Equilibrium in 3-Dimensions Support Reactions A force is developed by a support that restricts the translation of the attached member A couple is developed when rotation of the attached member is prevented = 0 x = 0 y = 0 z = 0 M = 0 Mx = 0 My = 0 Mz = 0
ME 201 Engineering Mechanics: Statics Chapter 6 Analysis of Structure Method of Joints Zero orce Members Method of Sections rames Machines
Simple Truss To Design members and connections of a truss, necessary to determine forces developed in each member Assumptions: All loadings are applied at the joints Members are joined together by smooth pins Assumptions satisfactory for bolted or welded joints
Method of Joints If truss is in equilibrium, each joint must also be in equilibrium Approach: Sketch ree Body Diagram of Entire Truss Solve for Reactions Sketch ree Body Diagrams of Each Joint 2 unknown limit per BD x =0 y =0 M o =0
Zero orce Members If only 2 members form a truss joint AND no external load or support reaction is applied to the joint, then the members must be Zero orce Members X X X X
Zero orce Members If 3 members form a truss joint for which 2 members are collinear, the 3 rd member is a Zero orce Member, provided no external force or support reaction is applied to the joint. X X
Method of Sections If a body is in equilibrium, then each part of the body must also be in equilibrium Approach Sketch ree Body Diagram of Entire Body Solve for Reactions Cut &Sketch ree Body Diagrams of Section(s) 3 unknown limit per BD x =0 y =0 M o =0 Look for Direct Solutions
rames & Machines Obtain solutions of rames and Machines by using Multiple ree Body Diagrams Note equal but opposite forces in opposing BDs Utilize properties of 2-force members where appropriate
ME 201 Engineering Mechanics: Statics Chapter 8 riction
riction Theory In general: μ N s = μ s N k = μ k N (for impending motion) (for sustaining motion, kinetic)
Guidelines for Solving riction Problems Use equations of equilibrium first μ N = μ N only if motion impends, or occurs Use care in determining direction of Always opposes motion/impending motion Opposite in 2 BD of same point
Guidelines for Solving riction Problems or sliding blocks N may not align with W Introduces Couple This distance may be found by summing M Can use to determine Slide vs. Tip With friction at multiple points need to examine motion at all points Simultaneous - only if physical link One slip vs. other not slip
