Tensile and compressive stresses increase proportionally with bending moment, but are also dependent on the second moment of area of the cross-section of a beam (that is, the shape of the cross-section, such as a circle, square or I-beam being common structural shapes).
where the second derivative of its deflected shape with respect to is interpreted as its curvature, is the Young's modulus, is the area moment of inertia of the cross-section, and is the internal bending moment in the beam.
Likewise the normal convention for a positive bending moment is to warp the element in a "u" shape manner (Clockwise on the left, and counterclockwise on the right). Another way to remember this is if the moment is bending the beam into a "smile" then the moment is positive, with compression at the top of the beam and tension on the bottom. [1]
The sign of the bending moment is taken as positive when the torque vector associated with the bending moment on the right hand side of the section is in the positive direction, that is, a positive value of produces compressive stress at the bottom surface.
In solid mechanics and structural engineering, section modulus is a geometric property of a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members.Other geometric properties used in design include: area for tension and shear, radius of gyration for compression, and second moment of area and polar second moment of area for stiffness.
The bending moment at a particular cross section varies linearly with the second derivative of the deflected shape at that location. The beam is composed of an isotropic material. The applied load is orthogonal to the beam's neutral axis and acts in a unique plane.
Some pre-workout drinks contain high levels of caffeine, but are they safe? A sports dietitian weighs in on how—and when—caffeine can be used for a fitness boost.
The left half of the plate shows the deformed shape, while the right half shows the undeformed shape. This calculation was performed using Ansys. Bending of plates, or plate bending, refers to the deflection of a plate perpendicular to the plane of the plate under the action of external forces and moments.
