A vehicle of the following data is equipped with a 4-speed AT. The ratios are: 2.84(1st), 1.60(2nd), 1.0(3rd),

0.7(4th). The final drive ratio is 2.84. The torque converter has the characteristics as shown. The engine

WOT output torque is also shown. The vehicle is being driven on level ground in the first gear with the

torque converter unlocked.

a) Present the differential equation system with the initial condition for the WOT performance simulation

model of the vehicle in the first gear. Assume the vehicle is launched at engine idle RPM.

b)

Determine the engine angular acceleration and vehicle acceleration when the vehicle is just launched

from stand still.

c)

Starting from time zero and using a step size of t=0.2, solve the differential equation system for one

step, i.e., find the engine RPM and vehicle speed 0.2 second after launch.

A 2-in steel plate and a 1-in cast-iron plate are compressed with one bolt, one ½ N American Standard plain washer under the head of the bolt, another identical washer under the nut, and one nut. The bolt is ½ in – 13UNC. Determine: (a)a suitable length for the bolt, rounded up to the nearest 4 in; (b) the bolt stiffness; (c) the stiffness of the members.


Three solid cylindrical rods are welded together to form the compound axial member shown in the figure. The compound axial member is attached to a fixed support at A. Each rod has an elastic modulus of E = 47 GPa. Use the following values for the rod lengths and areas: L = 1530 mm, L2 = 1720 mm, L3 = 1210 mm, A1 = 250 mm^2, A2 = 155 mm, and Az = 65 mm. What magnitude of external load P is needed to displace end Da distance of up= 80 mm to the right? Find the relationship between &1, the elongation of rod (1), and the internal tensile force, F1, in rod (1). Assume &1 is a positive value in units of mm and F1 is a positive value in units of kN. So, the answer you enter for the ratio (&1/F1) must be in units of (mm/kN). Similar to the previous step, find the relationship between 82, the elongation of rod (2), and the internal tensile force, F2, in rod(2). Assume &z is a positive value in units of mm and F2 is a positive value in units of kN. So, the answer you enter for the ratio (&z/F2) must be in units of (mm/kN). Similar to the previous step, find the relationship between 83, the elongation of rod (2), and the internal tensile force, F3, in rod(2). Assume &z is a positive value in units of mm and F3 is a positive value in units of kN. So, the answer you enter for the ratio (&z/F3) must be in units of (mm/kN). Choose the correct relationship between the internal tensile forces in rods (1). (2), and (3), denoted F1,F2, and F3, respectively,and the applied load, P. What magnitude of external load P is needed to displace end Da distance of uD = 80 mm to the right? F_{1}=F_{2}=F_{3}=P \frac{F_{1} L_{1}}{A_{1} E}+\frac{F_{2} L_{2}}{A_{2} E}+\frac{F_{3} L_{3}}{A_{3} E}=\frac{P\left(L_{1}+L_{2}+L_{3}\right)}{\left(A_{1}+A_{2}+A_{3}\right) E} F_{1}+F_{2}+F_{3}=3 P F_{1}+F_{2}+F_{3}=P
