Two rectangular beams are made of steel having a tensile yield strength of \(80
\mathrm{ksi}\) and an assumed idealized stress-strain curve. Beam A has a
uniform \(1 \times 0.5\)-in. section. Beam B has a \(1 \times 0.5\)-in. section
that blends symmetrically into a \(1.5 \times 0.5\)-in. section with fillets
giving a stress concentration factor of 3 . The beams are loaded in bending in
such a way that \(Z=I / c=b h^{2} / 6=0.5(1)^{2} / 6=\frac{1}{12}\) in. \(^{3}\)
(a) For each beam, what moment, \(M\), causes (1) initial yielding and (2)
complete yielding?
(b) Beam A is loaded to cause yielding to a depth of \(\frac{1}{4}\) in.
Determine and plot the distribution of residual stresses that remain after the
load is removed.
