Prob. Given the following round-cantilever beam under a force F(t),

F(t)

where Length of the beam: L=30 in. Modulus of elasticity: E=3*10^7 psi Moment of initial: I= 0.0833 in^4 Cross-section area: A=1 in^2 Mass density:=0.00073 lb-s^2/in^4 Poissons ratio: =0.3 (assuming a small damping: C=0.01) (a) show the stress distribution as F(t)=500 lbf (b) Obtain the force v.s. deflection characteristic (up to large deflection, i.e. up to plastic region ) (c) obtain the deflection v.s. frequency response (when F(t) is sinusoidal)
