Static Equilibrium and
Elasticity
Static Equilibrium
•Equilibrium implies that the object moves with both
constant velocity and constant angular velocity relative to
an observer in an inertial reference frame.
•Will deal now with the special case in which both of these
velocities are equal to zero
• This is called static equilibrium.
•Static equilibrium is a common situation in engineering.
•The principles involved are of particular interest to civil
engineers, architects, and mechanical engineers.
Elasticity
•We will disuss how objects deform under load
conditions.
•An elastic object returns to its original shape when the
deforming forces are removed.
•Various elastic constants will be defined, each
corresponding to a different type of deformation.
LECTURE GOALS
Center of Gravity
•All the various gravitational
forces acting on all the various
mass elements are equivalent
to a single gravitational force
acting through a single point
called the center of gravity
(CG).
•Each particle contributes a
torque about an axis through
the origin equal in magnitude
to the particle’s weight
multiplied by its moment arm.

Center of Gravity, cont
•The torque due to the gravitational force on an object of
mass M is the force Mg acting at the center of gravity of the
object.
•If g is uniform over the object, then the center of gravity of
the object coincides with its center of mass.
•If the object is homogeneous and symmetrical, the center
of gravity coincides with its geometric center.
Definitions Associated With
Deformation
•Stress
• Is proportional to the force causing the deformation
• It is the external force acting on the object per unit cross-
sectional area.
•Strain
• Is the result of a stress
• Is a measure of the degree of deformation
Elasticity
•So far we have assumed that objects remain rigid when
external forces act on them.
• Except springs
•Actually, all objects are deformable to some extent.
• It is possible to change the size and/or shape of the object by applying
external forces.
•Internal forces resist the deformation.
Elastic Modulus
•The elastic modulus is the constant of proportionality between the stress
and the strain.
• For sufficiently small stresses, the stress is directly proportional to the strain.
• It depends on the material being deformed.
• It also depends on the nature of the deformation.
•The elastic modulus, in general, relates what is done to a solid object to
how that object responds.
•Various types of deformation have unique elastic moduli.

ThreeTypes of Moduli
•Young’s Modulus
• Measures the resistance of a solid to a change in its length
•Shear Modulus
• Measures the resistance of motion of the planes within a solid
parallel to each other
•Bulk Modulus
• Measures the resistance of solids or liquids to changes in their
volume
Young’s Modulus
•The bar is stretched by an amount
DL under the action of the force F.
•The tensile stress is the ratio of the
magnitude of the external force to the
cross-sectional areaA.
•The tension strain is the ratio of the
change in length to the original
length.
•Young’s modulus,Y, is the ratio of
those two ratios:
• Units are N / m2

Stress vs. Strain Curve
•Experiments show that for certain stresses, the stress is directly proportional to the
strain.
•This is the elastic behavior part of the curve.
•The elastic limit is the maximum stress that can be applied to the substance before it
becomes permanently deformed.
Stress vs. Strain Curve, cont’d.
•When the stress exceeds the elastic limit, the substance
will be permanently deformed.
• The curve is no longer a straight line.
•With additional stress, the material ultimately breaks.
Shear Modulus
•Another type of deformation
occurs when a force acts parallel
to one of its faces while the
opposite face is held fixed by
another force.
•This is called a shear stress.
•For small deformations, no
change in volume occurs with this
deformation.
Shear Modulus, cont.
•The shear strain is Dx / h.
• Dx is the horizontal distance the sheared face moves.
• h is the height of the object.
•The shear stress is F / A.
• F is the tangential force.
• A is the area of the face being sheared.
•The shear modulus is the ratio of the shear stress to the shear
strain.
•Units are N / m2

Bulk Modulus
•Another type of deformation
occurs when a force of uniform
magnitude is applied
perpendicularly over the entire
surface of the object.
•The object will undergo a change in
volume, but not in shape.
•The volume stress is defined as the
ratio of the magnitude of the total
force, F, exerted on the surface to
the area, A, of the surface.
• This is also called the pressure.
•The volume strain is the ratio of the
change in volume to the original
volume.
Bulk Modulus, cont.
•The bulk modulus is the ratio of the volume stress to the
volume strain.
•The negative indicates that an increase in pressure will
result in a decrease in volume.

Compressibility
•The compressibility is the inverse of the bulk modulus.
•It may be used instead of the bulk modulus.
Moduli andTypes of Materials
•Both solids and liquids have a bulk modulus.
•Liquids cannot sustain a shearing stress or a tensile stress.
• If a shearing force or a tensile force is applied to a liquid, the
liquid will flow in response.

Ans: 2.5 cm
