1. According to Euler's column theory, the crippling load of a column is given by p = ?2EI/Cl2. In the Euler's formula, the value of C for a column with both ends fixed is 4.
3. The hoop stress in a riveted cylindrical shell of diameter (d), thickness (t) and subjected to an internal pressure (p) is (where ? = Efficiency of the riveted joint)
5. If there is a fall in the temperature of a composite body, then a member having greater coefficient of linear expansion will be subjected to compressive stress.
6. If percentage elongation of a certain specimen made of a material 'A' under tensile test is 30% and the percentage elongation of a specimen with same dimensions made of another material 'B' is 40%, then material 'B' is more ductile than material 'A'.
