  2. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    The curve () describes the deflection of the beam in the direction at some position (recall that the beam is modeled as a one-dimensional object). q {\displaystyle q} is a distributed load, in other words a force per unit length (analogous to pressure being a force per area); it may be a function of x {\displaystyle x} , w {\displaystyle w ...

  3. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    In this case, the equation governing the beam's deflection can be approximated as: = () where the second derivative of its deflected shape with respect to (being the horizontal position along the length of the beam) is interpreted as its curvature, is the Young's modulus, is the area moment of inertia of the cross-section, and is the internal ...

  4. Cantilever method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever_method

    The cantilever method is an approximate method for calculating shear forces and moments developed in beams and columns of a frame or structure due to lateral loads. The applied lateral loads typically include wind loads and earthquake loads, which must be taken into consideration while designing buildings.

  5. Arc length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_length

    Thus the length of a curve is a non-negative real number. Usually no curves are considered which are partly spacelike and partly timelike. In theory of relativity, arc length of timelike curves (world lines) is the proper time elapsed along the world line, and arc length of a spacelike curve the proper distance along the curve.

  6. Neutral axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_axis

    Let L be the original length of the beam ε(y) is the strain as a function of coordinate on the face of the beam. σ(y) is the stress as a function of coordinate on the face of the beam. ρ is the radius of curvature of the beam at its neutral axis. θ is the bend angle

  7. Flexural modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_modulus

    It is determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve produced by a flexural test (such as the ASTM D790), and uses units of force per area. [2] The flexural modulus defined using the 2-point (cantilever) and 3-point bend tests assumes a linear stress strain response. [3] Flexural modulus measurement

  8. Bending of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    In the Kirchhoff–Love plate theory for plates the governing equations are [1], = and , = In expanded form, + = ; + = and + + = where () is an applied transverse load per unit area, the thickness of the plate is =, the stresses are , and

  9. 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.
