To calculate the stress in the curved beam, we can use the formula for stress:
σ = (M * y) / I
where σ is the stress, M is the moment, y is the distance from the centroid, and I is the moment of inertia.
First, let's calculate the moment of inertia for the cross-sectional area of the curved beam. The moment of inertia can be calculated as:
I = (π / 4) * (r_outer^4 - r_inner^4)
where r_outer is the outer radius and r_inner is the inner radius.
Given that the inner radius is 3.5D and the outer radius is 4.5D, we have:
r_outer = 4.5D
r_inner = 3.5D
Therefore, the moment of inertia is:
I = (π / 4) * ((4.5D)^4 - (3.5D)^4)
Next, let's calculate the moment applied to the curved beam. The moment can be calculated as:
M = F * e
where F is the applied force and e is the eccentricity.
Given that the applied force is 1kN and the eccentricity is 0.02D, we have:
F = 1kN
e = 0.02D
Therefore, the moment is:
M = 1kN * 0.02D
Now, let's calculate the distance y from the centroid. The distance y can be calculated as:
y = (r_outer + r_inner) / 2
Given that the outer radius is 4.5D and the inner radius is 3.5D, we have:
r_outer = 4.5D
r_inner = 3.5D
Therefore, the distance y is:
y = (4.5D + 3.5D) / 2
Finally, we can calculate the stress using the formula:
σ = (M * y) / I
Substituting the values we have calculated, we get:
σ = (1kN * 0.02D * (4.5D + 3.5D) / 2) / ((π / 4) * ((4.5D)^4 - (3.5D)^4))
Simplifying further, we have:
σ = (0.01kN * 8D) / ((π / 4) * (91D^4))
σ = (0.08kN * D) / (π * (91D^4))
Therefore, the stress in the curved beam is (0.08kN * D) / (π * (91D^4)).
