Experimental Analysis of Stress Syllabus for B.Tech 8th sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Experimental Analysis of Stress B.Tech (R13) eightsem is as follows
OBJECTIVES:
To make students aware of various measurement techniques and experimental planning and procedures adopted in laboratory.
UNIT I : STRAIN GAUGES [9 hours]
Definition of Gauge length, sensitivity and range – Characteristics of an ideal strain gauge – Different types of mechanical strain gauges for use in metal and concrete specimens – Optical strain gauge – Acoustic strain gauge – Pneumatic strain gauge – Merits and demerits.
UNIT II : ELECTRICAL STRAIN GAUGES [9 hours]
Inductance, capacitance and piezo-electric gauges – Bonded and unbounded resistance gauges and their application in stress analysis – Fixing technique and measurement of strains – Rosettes – Determination of principal strains using rosettes – Use of Murphy’s construction for drawing circle of strains – Mohr’s stress circle – Analytical solution.
UNIT III : PHOTOELASTICITY [9 hours]
Principles – Maxwell’s stress optic law – Plane and circularly polarised light and their use in photo elasticity – Polariscopes – Diffusion type, lense type and reflection type polariscopes – Isochromatics and Isoclinics – Model materials – Calibration methods for finding material fringe value – Model fringe value – Examples of beam flexure and diametrically loaded circular plates.
[TOTAL: 45 PERIODS]
OUTCOMES:
- Students will be able to select the appropriate strain gauges for strain measurements and they have sufficient knowledge in model analysis and predict the behaviour of prototypes.
