A steel [E = 200 GPa; ν = 0.3; α = 10.8 ×10-6/°C] plate has a rectangular hole at its center and four circular holes at the corners. At an initial temperature of Ti = –14°C, the plate is 90 mm wide, 150 mm long, and 20 mm thick. The rectangular hole is 30 mm wide and 75 mm long. The circular holes have a diameter of 21 mm. At a final temperature of Tf = 46°C, determine the width of the plate.
