  2. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    The deflection distance of a member under a load can be calculated by integrating the function that mathematically describes the slope of the deflected shape of the member under that load. Standard formulas exist for the deflection of common beam configurations and load cases at discrete locations.

  3. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    Euler–Bernoulli beam theory (also known as engineer's beam theory or classical beam theory) [1] is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load-carrying and deflection characteristics of beams. It covers the case corresponding to small deflections of a beam that is subjected to lateral ...

  4. Macaulay's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaulay's_method

    Macaulay's method (the double integration method) is a technique used in structural analysis to determine the deflection of Euler-Bernoulli beams.Use of Macaulay's technique is very convenient for cases of discontinuous and/or discrete loading.

  5. Direct integration of a beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_integration_of_a_beam

    Direct integration is a structural analysis method for measuring internal shear, internal moment, rotation, and deflection of a beam. Positive directions for forces acting on an element. For a beam with an applied weight w ( x ) {\displaystyle w(x)} , taking downward to be positive, the internal shear force is given by taking the negative ...

  6. Slope deflection method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_deflection_method

    The slope deflection method is a structural analysis method for beams and frames introduced in 1914 by George A. Maney. [1] The slope deflection method was widely used for more than a decade until the moment distribution method was developed. In the book, "The Theory and Practice of Modern Framed Structures", written by J.B Johnson, C.W. Bryan ...

  7. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    in these formulas the following parameters are used: = Stress in outer fibers at midpoint, = load at a given point on the load deflection curve, = Support span, (mm) = Width of test beam, (mm) = Depth or thickness of tested beam, (mm)

  8. Moment-area theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment-Area_Theorem

    The moment-area theorem is an engineering tool to derive the slope, rotation and deflection of beams and frames. This theorem was developed by Mohr and later stated namely by Charles Ezra Greene in 1873.

  9. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    The conjugate-beam methods is an engineering method to derive the slope and displacement of a beam. A conjugate beam is defined as an imaginary beam with the same dimensions (length) as that of the original beam but load at any point on the conjugate beam is equal to the bending moment at that point divided by EI.
