Continuing with the paper towel product, the test for cost per unit area can be calculated. The absorbency can be determined by putting a paper towel in a cup of water, letting it sit for a certain amount of time, say 10 seconds, removing it, letting water run off for another 10 seconds, and measuring how much water was absorbed. The wet strength test can be done by taking a dampened paper towel, same amount of water for each, holding it taut, and adding weight, perhaps coins, until it breaks.

PROBLEM 2.C4 Bar AB has a length L and is made of two different materials of given cross-sectional area, modulus of elasticity, and yield strength. The bar is subjected as shown to a load P that is gradually increased from zero until the deformation of the bar has reached a maximum value and then decreased back to zero. (a) Write a computer program that, for each of 25 values of equally spaced over a range extending from 0 to a value equal to 120% of the deformation causing both materials to yield, can be used to determine the maximum value of the load, the maximum normal stress in each material, the permanent deformation of the bar, and the residual stress in each material. (b) Use this program to solve Probs. 2.111 and 2.112.
