Consider a compact specimen that is loaded cyclically at a constant load amplitude with Pmax = 18 kN and Pmin = 5 kN. Using the fatigue crack growth data in Problem 5.1, calculate the number of cycles required to grow the crack from a/W = 0.35 to a/W = 0.60. Plot crack size vs. cumulative cycles for this range of a/W.

If the thermal strain developed in polyimide film during deposition is given as 0.0044. assume room temperature is kept at 17.3 c, and thermal coefficient of expansion for the film and the substrate are 54 x 10^-6c^-1 and 3.3 x 10^-6c^-1respectively. calculate the deposition temperature.

Aplate clutch has a single pair of mating friction surfaces 250-mm od by 175-mm id. the mean value of the coefficient of friction is 0.30, and the actuating force is 4 kn. a) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-wear model. b) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure model.

The higher the astm grain size number, the finer the gran is. a)-true b)-false
