I am given E= 210 GPa v=0.3

\sigma= [ -20 15 ]
15 30

How do I find G = ?

and \epsilon

Any help much appreciated.

Thread 'Find the distance given a function for v(t)'

My solution: v = 2*t + 5*t^2. dx/dt = 2*t + 5*t^2. Therefore dx = (2t + 5t^2)dt. After taking the anti derivative my equation is s = t^2/2 + 5/3(t^3).

Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'

Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
