  2. Bending moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_moment

    If clockwise bending moments are taken as negative, then a negative bending moment within an element will cause "hogging", and a positive moment will cause "sagging". It is therefore clear that a point of zero bending moment within a beam is a point of contraflexure—that is, the point of transition from hogging to sagging or vice versa.

  3. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  4. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Loads imposed on structures are supported by means of forces transmitted through structural elements. These forces can manifest themselves as tension (axial force), compression (axial force), shear, and bending, or flexure (a bending moment is a force multiplied by a distance, or lever arm, hence producing a turning effect or torque).

  5. Specific modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_modulus

    By examining the formulas for area moment of inertia, we can see that the stiffness of this beam will vary approximately as the third power of the radius or height. Thus the second moment of area will vary approximately as the inverse of the cube of the density, and performance of the beam will depend on Young's modulus divided by density cubed.

    The bending moment applied to the beam also has to be specified. The rotation φ {\displaystyle \varphi } and the transverse shear force Q x {\displaystyle Q_{x}} are not specified. Clamped beams : The displacement w {\displaystyle w} and the rotation φ {\displaystyle \varphi } are specified to be zero at the clamped end.

    Miami being in the US is a big factor, as it is the top market for the Italian luxury automaker, with Florida the second-biggest market for Lamborghini in the country, following California.

  9. Flexural rigidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_rigidity

    where is the flexural modulus (in Pa), is the second moment of area (in m 4), is the transverse displacement of the beam at x, and () is the bending moment at x. The flexural rigidity (stiffness) of the beam is therefore related to both E {\displaystyle E} , a material property, and I {\displaystyle I} , the physical geometry of the beam.
