Group-E The cantilevered bar in the figure is made from a ductile material and is statically loaded with Fy = 200 lbf and Fx = Fz = 0. (a) Locate the critical point for failure of the bar AB and sketch the 2D (surface) plane stress element at such a point, labelling the coordinate directions and showing all stresses. (b) Calculate magnitude of the stresses acting on the plane stress element. (c) Use MD Solids to determine the principal and maximum shear stresses at the critical point. (d) Confirm your calculations using the transformation equations. {Hint: the third principal stress is zero for plane stress elements} 2 in 1-in dia. - in - in 5 in 6 in
