Romanian Master of Physics 2012

Условие

In this problem gravitational effects are to be neglected. Unless otherwise stated, substances are to be considered homogenous and isotropic at all times.

A.

Consider a very thin elastic rod, prevented from bending. The rod has length LL, density ρ, and Young elasticity modulus EE. The cross section of the rod is to be taken as constant. The rod is slightly stretched from both ends and then let to oscillate freely.

a. Write the kinetic energy of the rod at some moment in terms of its mass mm, length LL, and change rate of the tensile strain ε. [1 т.]

b. Write the potential elastic energy of the rod at some moment in terms of mm, ρ, EE, and ε. [0,5 т.]

c. Show that the conservation of mechanical energy for the rod leads to the characteristic differential equation for an undamped harmonic oscillation. Resorting to the analogy with a point mass mm acted upon by the force σSS (σ being the tensile stress and SS being the cross section), specify the quantity that plays here the role of coordinate. [0,5 т.]

d. Write the expression for the period of small longitudinal oscillations of the rod in terms of LL, ρ, and EE. [0,5 т.]

B.

Consider an elastic sphere of radius RR, made of the same material as the rod before. Let ε be the tensile strain ΔR/R\Delta R/R. The sphere is slightly compressed uniformly and then let to oscillate freely.

e. Write the mechanical energy of the sphere at some moment in terms of mm, RR, ρ, EE, ε and the change rate of ε. [0,5 т.]

f. Write down the expression for the period of small radial oscillations of the sphere in terms of RR, ρ, and EE. [0,5 т.]

C.

Consider a very thin rectangular elastic plate, prevented from bending. The plate has the linear dimensions LL and ll respectively. The thickness of the plate is to be taken as constant.

The effects of the tensile stresses σx\sigma_x and σy\sigma_y acting on the plate are NOT independent, in the sense that a stretching on one of the directions leads to a shrinking on the other direction. In the limits of Hooke's Law, this can be written as:

εx=−μσyE ,εy=−μσxE\begin{aligned}\varepsilon_x&=-\mu\frac{\sigma_y}{E}\ ,\\ \varepsilon_y&=-\mu\frac{\sigma_x}{E}\end{aligned}

where the dimensionless factor μ (Poisson's ratio) is somewhere in the range of 0.3.

g. Express σx\sigma_x and σy\sigma_y in terms of εx\varepsilon_x, εy\varepsilon_y, EE, and μ. [0,5 т.]

h. Write the system of differential equations for the movement of a point mass mm on two orthogonal directions, using as coordinates the equivalent found at point c. [0,5 т.]

i. Find the possible values of ω for which the solutions of the above system are simple undamped harmonic oscillations (modes):

εx=Asin⁡ωtεy=Bsin⁡ωt .\begin{aligned}\varepsilon_x&=A\sin\omega t\\ \varepsilon_y&=B\sin\omega t\end{aligned}\ .

Express the results in terms of LL, ll, ρ, EE, and μ. [1,5 т.]

j. In general, the solution of the above system of equations is a superposition of the two modes found. For a square plate (L=lL = l) and a weak Poisson ratio (μ2≪1\mu^2 \ll 1), express the beats period in terms of μ and the period TlongT_{\mathrm{long}} of longitudinal oscillations of a rod with the same length. [0,5 т.]

D.

Now, instead of being squeezed, the plate is slightly slanted along one of the dimensions, by the action of a shear stress τ, as in the diagram alongside. The shear strain is defined to be tan⁡γ≈γ\tan\gamma\approx\gamma, and Hooke's Law takes the form:

γ=1Gτ ; [τ]SI=[G]SI=N/m2 ,\gamma=\frac{1}{G}\tau\ ;\ [\tau]_{\mathrm{SI}}=[G]_{\mathrm{SI}}=\mathrm{N/m^2}\ ,

where GG is the so-called shear modulus.

Sheared plate with applied stress tau, shear angle gamma, length L and width l.

k. Express GG in terms of EE and μ. [1,5 т.]

l. Find the period of the small slanting oscillations of the plate in terms of LL, ρ, and GG. Express the same period in terms of μ and the period of a rod with the same length undergoing longitudinal oscillations, TlongT_{\mathrm{long}}. [0,5 т.]

E.

A cylinder of radius RR and length LL, made of the same material as before, is slightly twisted and let to oscillate freely. The torsion strain is defined as the angle θ with which the cylinder is twisted, under the stress of a torque. Hooke's Law takes now the form:

θ=1CM ; [C]SI=[M]SI=Nm ,\theta=\frac{1}{C}M\ ;\ [C]_{\mathrm{SI}}=[M]_{\mathrm{SI}}=\mathrm{Nm}\ ,

where CC is the so-called elastic torsion constant.

m. Find the period of the small twisting oscillations of the cylinder in terms of LL, ρ, and GG. [0,5 т.]

n. Express the elastic torsion constant in terms of RR, LL, EE, and μ. [1 т.]
