GATE CE 2003 | Pure Bending Question 7 | Strength of Materials Or Solid Mechanics

A simply supported beam of uniform rectangular cross-section of width $$b$$ and depth $$h$$ is subjected to linear temperature gradient, $${0^ \circ }$$ at the top $${T^ \circ }$$ at the bottom, as shown in the figure. The coefficient of linear expansion of the beam material is $$\alpha .$$ This resulting vertical deflection at the mid-span of the beam is GATE CE 2003 Strength of Materials Or Solid Mechanics - Pure Bending Question 2 English
