    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influence_line

    Figure 1: (a) This simple supported beam is shown with a unit load placed a distance x from the left end. Its influence lines for four different functions: (b) the reaction at the left support (denoted A), (c) the reaction at the right support (denoted C), (d) one for shear at a point B along the beam, and (e) one for moment also at point B. Figure 2: The change in Bending Moment in a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Müller-Breslau's_principle

    Part (d) of the figure shows the influence line for shear at point B. Using the beam sign convention and cutting the beam at B, we can deduce the figure shown. Part (e) of the figure shows the influence line for the bending moment at point B. Again making a cut through the beam at point B and using the beam sign convention, we can deduce the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STAAD

    The influence surface is a three-dimensional form of an influence line for a single member (or, in other words, it is a 2D influence function). STAAD.Pro will automatically generate influence surfaces for effects such as bending moments for elements, deflection in all the degrees of freedom of nodes, and support reactions.

  5. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    A beam may be defined as an element in which one dimension is much greater than the other two and the applied loads are usually normal to the main axis of the element. Beams and columns are called line elements and are often represented by simple lines in structural modeling. cantilevered (supported at one end only with a fixed connection)

    The loads applied to the beam result in reaction forces at the beam's support points. The total effect of all the forces acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending moments within the beam, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and deflections of the beam. Beams are characterized by their manner of support, profile (shape ...

    Hot Toddy. Not for the kids of course, but a hot toddy can be so soothing to sip. All you need is hot water, lemon, honey, and a splash of bourbon or whiskey.

  9. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    In many materials, the relation between applied stress is directly proportional to the resulting strain (up to a certain limit), and a graph representing those two quantities is a straight line. The slope of this line is known as Young's modulus, or the "modulus of elasticity". The modulus of elasticity can be used to determine the stress ...
