Question:

The 60° strain rosette is mounted on the surface of the bracket. The following readings are obtained for each gage: εa= -780(10-6), εb= 400(10-6), and εc= 500(10-6). Determine (a) the principal strains and (b) the maximum in-plane shear strain and associated average normal strain. In each case show the deformed element due to these strains.
