SUMMARY/ABSTRACT:
Generally, this experiment is done to find the value of Young Modulus under circumferential condition of stress, principle strains and Poisson’s ratio. Software called SM1007 is introduced in this experiment to help students in finding the value of Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio and principle strains required. The cylinder in open ends condition has no end constraint and therefore the longitudinal component of stress will be zero, but there will be some strain in this direction due to the Poisson effect.

In this experiment we discussed the stresses in thin cylinder and derive formulas relating the stresses in the walls of the cylinder and the gage pressure p in the fluid they contain. In the case of a cylindrical vessel of inside radius r and thickness t, we obtained the following expression for the hoop stress H and the longitudinal stress L. Mohr’s circle provides an alternative method, based on simple geometric considerations, for the analysis of the transformation of plane stress.

Thin-walled pressure vessels provide an important application

    alculating fluid volume in a horizontal or vertical cylindrical or elliptical tank can be complicated, depending on fluid height and the shape of the heads (ends) of a horizontal tank or the bottom of a vertical tank. Exact equations now are available for several commonly encountered tank shapes. These equations can be used to make rapid and accurate fluid-volume calculations. All equations are rigorous, but computational difficulties will arise in certain limiting configurations.…

    Minimum wage policy will lead to surging unemployment, “black market” labour and inflationary pressure, employers and economists have warned. Datuk Seri Najib Razak announced on Monday a base wage of RM900 for the peninsula and RM800 in Sabah and Sarawak with a grace period of six months, or doubles that for micro-enterprises. “When employers refuse to hire at the minimum wage, desperate workers will look to the black market and agree to take less than that,” said Wan Saiful Wan Jan, chief executive of libertarian think-tank Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs. The government began working on a minimum wage policy last year after over a decade of pressure from labour unions during which productivity rose by 6.7 per cent annually but real wages inched up by just 2.6 per cent each year. Malaysian Employers Federation executive director Shamsuddin Bardan also said that in some cases, such as plantation workers in Sabah, a minimum wage of RM800 would double salaries. “On top of that, if Najib wins elections as expected, subsidy cuts will resume. In the end there will be very little positive impact for workers,” said Hafiz Noor Shams, an economist at a leading investment bank. Shamsuddin suggested instead that instead of “using the force of law,” the government should incentivize both employers and employees to upgrade the skill base of the workforce. The Human Resources Ministry says three-quarters of the 12 million-strong workers are unskilled. When there are un skilled workers, there are hard to give them a high salaries. This is because. It take time to make them…
