The longitudinal normal stress in an elongated body. For uniform loading it is the axial resultant force divided by the relevant cross-sectional area; Cauchy stress tensor components use current area. Positive values conventionally indicate tension and negative values compression.

The area of a planar section through a body. A homogeneous diagonal deformation with transverse stretch ratios ${\lambda }_1$ and ${\lambda }_2$ changes the area of a transverse section from ${\mathcal{A}}_0$ to $\mathcal{A}={\lambda }_1{\lambda }_2{\mathcal{A}}_0$. Cauchy stress tensor components use current cross-sectional area, whereas nominal tractions use reference cross-sectional area.

The second moment of area about an axis weights each element of cross-sectional area by its squared perpendicular distance from that axis. The ellipse extends farther along ${\mathbf{d}}_2$ than along ${\mathbf{d}}_1$, so its material lies, on balance, farther from the ${\mathbf{d}}_1$ axis. ThereforeWith zero intrinsic curvature of an elastic filament, the respective bending moments required by the constitutive equation are $E{I}_1\kappa {\mathbf{d}}_1$ and $E{I}_2\kappa {\mathbf{d}}_2$. Thus their magnitudes satisfyfor $\kappa \ne 0$: bending about the minor axis is harder. Here $E$ is Young's modulus, and $E{I}_i$ is the corresponding bending stiffness.

The end displacement relative to the initial unit axial length isBy Hooke's law, the total resisting force supplied by the spring is $F_3=-K\delta$. To convert this resultant into the axial Cauchy stress tensor, divide by the current end cross-sectional area. The transverse total stretches are both ${\alpha }^{-1/2}$, so that area isUniform traction over that face consequently givesEquate this to the expression from part (ii):The extra factor $\alpha$ on the left is essential: the spring law specifies a total force, whereas the material constitutive equation specifies force per current area. The reference end area is one, so the same spring resultant can also be read as a nominal end traction.

At a fixed $z\in [-1,1]$, both cylinder inequalities becomeThus the cross section is a square of side $2\sqrt{1-z^2}$ and area $4(1-z^2)$. Integrating these cross-sectional areas gives the volume of this bicylinder:

The original double integral covers the triangle $0\le y\le x\le 1$. By Fubini's theorem, after reversing the order, $y$ runs from $0$ to $1$ and $x$ from $y$ to $1$. Since a continuous function is integrable on this bounded region,For the square pyramid, a horizontal section at height $z$ is a square of side $2(1-z)$: each vertex moves linearly from the base towards $(1,1,1)$. Hence its cross-sectional area is $4(1-z{)}^2$, and its volume is $4{\int }_0^1(1-z{)}^{2}dz$. To use the identity just proved, choose $f(y)=1-y$:

Assume the rod has constant cross-sectional area $A$, no internal source of heat, no bulk motion, and no lateral heat flux. Assume also that each section has a uniform temperature, so that $T$ depends only on $x,t$, and that Fourier's law applies with the stated constant thermal conductivity $k$. The longitudinal heat flux density is then $q=-k{T}_x$.

By conservation of energy, the rate of increase of internal energy in a slice $[x,x+\Delta x]$ equals incoming minus outgoing heat:Divide by $A\Delta x$ and take the limit $\Delta x\to 0$. For a sufficiently differentiable temperature field this gives $\rho c{T}_t=-q_x=k{T}_{xx}$, and henceHere $\rho$ is mass density, $c$ is specific heat capacity, and $\kappa$ is thermal diffusivity.

For separation of variables, put $U=X(x)H(t)$ and set $X^{\prime \prime }/X=H^{\prime }/(\kappa H)=-\lambda$. The boundary conditions are $X(0)=0$, $X^{\prime }(L)=0$. Multiplying $-X^{\prime \prime }=\lambda X$ by $X$ and using integration by parts givesA nonzero solution therefore has $\lambda >0$: the zero case forces $X$ constant, and then $X(0)=0$ forces $X=0$. Writing $\lambda ={\mu }^2$, the eigenfunctions and their temporal factors areThese sine functions are orthogonal on $[0,L]$, with squared norm $L/2$. Expanding the initial condition and multiplying by $\sin ({\mu }_{m}x)$ gives, using the permitted interchange of the sum and integral,Here $\cos ({\mu }_{n}L)=0$ and $\sin ({\mu }_{n}L)=(-1{)}^n$. Thus the Fourier series solution isThe exponential decay permits differentiation of the series for $t>0$, and each term satisfies both boundary conditions. At $t=0$ it is the mixed-end Fourier expansion of $-T_{0}x/L$.

The gained heat is the increase in internal energy. Since the paper specifies no cross-sectional area, first give the answer per unit cross-sectional area; multiply by $A$ for a rod of cross-sectional area $A$. The initial temperature has integral $T_{0}L/2$, whereas ${\int }_0^L\sin ({\mu }_{n}x)dx=1/{\mu }_n$. At $t_{\ast }=L^2/\kappa$ this givesNumerically $\Delta Q/A\simeq 0.45623855\rho c{T}_{0}L$. This is positive and less than the eventual gain $\rho c{T}_{0}L/2$, as expected from relaxation towards the uniform steady state.

Write the wire diameter as $d_w$ to distinguish it from other geometric labels. Its cross-sectional area is $A_w=\pi d_w^2/4$, and the total wire length is $4a$. From the electrical resistivity, its electrical resistance isWhile the loop straddles the boundary, let $h$ be the height of each vertical side remaining in the magnetic field. The linked magnetic flux has magnitude $Bah$, with $\dot{h}=-v$. Faraday's law therefore gives $|\mathcal{E}|=Bav$. Neglecting the loop's self-inductance, Ohm's law givesThe into-page magnetic flux is decreasing, so Lenz's law requires a clockwise electric current as viewed in the diagram. If the loop is wholly inside a uniform magnetic field, or wholly outside it, its magnetic flux is constant and this induced electromotive force is zero. During a rapid transient one should instead solve $L\dot{I}+RI=Bav$; at the assumed steady speed the same boxed relation holds.

Use the geometric cross-section shown in the source: the outer cylinder has radius $2a$ and centre $O$, and the circular cavity has radius $a$ and centre $C=a\hat{\mathbf{x}}$. Let the electric current be in the $+z$ direction. The conducting cross-sectional area is $3\pi a^2$, so the uniform electric current density is $\mathbf{J}=I\hat{\mathbf{z}}/(3\pi a^2)$.

To obtain the exterior magnetic field of a wire with an eccentric cylindrical cavity, apply the superposition principle to a full cylinder of electric current density $\mathbf{J}$ centred at $O$ and a second cylinder of electric current density $-\mathbf{J}$ centred at $C$. Their electric currents are $4I/3$ and $-I/3$. This reproduces the actual electric current density everywhere, including zero in the cavity. Outside a long circular cylinder, Ampère's law gives $\mathbf{B}={\mu }_0{I}_{\mathrm{cyl}}\hat{\mathbf{z}}\times \mathbf{r}/(2\pi r^2)$. Every point outside the outer boundary is outside both component cylinders. Consequently, writing $\mathbf{r}=x\hat{\mathbf{x}}+y\hat{\mathbf{y}}$,In Cartesian coordinates, the same magnetic flux density isThe cavity breaks rotational symmetry. Thus the magnetic flux density is generally neither constant in magnitude nor tangential on a circle centred at $O$; replacing its line integral by $2\pi rB$ would be unjustified. Its line integral is nevertheless ${\mu }_{0}I$, as Ampère's law requires. At distances $r\gg a$, the leading term becomes ${\mu }_{0}I\hat{\mathbf{\varphi }}/(2\pi r)$, with corrections of order ${\mu }_{0}Ia/r^2$.
