A 2D thin plate with modulus of elasticity, 𝐸 = 1.0 N/m2, and Poisson’s ratio, 𝜇 = 0.5, is in plane stress condition. The displacement field in the plate is given by 𝑢 = 𝐶𝑥2𝑦 and 𝑣 = 0, where 𝑢 and 𝑣 are displacements (in m) along the 𝑋 and 𝑌 directions, respectively, and 𝐶 is a constant (in m−2). The distances x and y along X and Y, respectively, are in m. The stress in the 𝑋 direction is 𝜎𝑋𝑋 = 40𝑥𝑦 N/m2, and the shear stress is 𝜏𝑋𝑌 = 𝛼𝑥2 N/m2. What is the value of 𝛼 (in N/m4, in integer)? ________
