Problem 1, 19pts An initially straight beam is bent into a circle with radius R as shown in the figure. Material fibers 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 2? = (R-X?) sin(¹), 2?-R- (R-X2?) cos( (a) Calculate the deformation gradient field in the beam, expressing your answer as a function of X?, X?,, and as components in the basis e?,e?, e shown. (b) Calculate the Green Lagrange E* strain field in the beam. (c) Calculate the infinitesimal strain field E in the beam. (d) Compare the values of Lagrange strain and infinitesimal strain for two points that lie at (X? = 0, X?=h) and (X? = L, X?-0). Explain briefly the physical origin of the difference between the two strain measures at each point. Recommend maximum allowable values of h/R and L/R for use of the infinitesimal strain measure in modeling beam deflections. (e) Calculate the deformed length of an infinitesimal material fiber that has length lo and orientation e, in the undeformed beam. Express your answer as a function of X?.
