Problem 86

The metal strap has a thickness $t$ and width $w$ and is subjected to a temperature gradient $T_1$ to $T_2\left(T_1<T_2\right)$. This causes the modulus of elasticity for the material to vary linearly from $E_1$ at the top to a smaller amount $E_2$ at the bottom. As a result, for any vertical position $y$, measured from the top surface, $E=\left[\left(E_2-E_1\right) / w\right] y+E_1$. Determine the position $d$ where the axial force $P$ must be applied so that the bar stretches uniformly over its cross section.
