where a 1 is the area on the bending moment diagram due to vertical loads on AB, a 2 is the area due to loads on BC, x 1 is the distance from A to the centroid of the bending moment diagram of beam AB, x 2 is the distance from C to the centroid of the area of the bending moment diagram of beam BC.
Aircraft flight dynamics. Flight dynamics is the science of air vehicle orientation and control in three dimensions. The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle's center of gravity (cg), known as pitch, roll and yaw. These are collectively known as aircraft attitude, often ...
The boundary element method (BEM) is a numerical computational method of solving linear partial differential equations which have been formulated as integral equations (i.e. in boundary integral form), including fluid mechanics, acoustics, electromagnetics (where the technique is known as method of moments or abbreviated as MoM), [1] fracture mechanics, [2] and contact mechanics.
The moment distribution method is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. [1] The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects. From the 1930s until computers began to be widely used in the design and ...
Screw theory is the algebraic calculation of pairs of vectors, also known as dual vectors[1] – such as angular and linear velocity, or forces and moments – that arise in the kinematics and dynamics of rigid bodies. [2][3] Screw theory provides a mathematical formulation for the geometry of lines which is central to rigid body dynamics ...
Traditionally the Newton–Euler equations is the grouping together of Euler's two laws of motion for a rigid body into a single equation with 6 components, using column vectors and matrices. These laws relate the motion of the center of gravity of a rigid body with the sum of forces and torques (or synonymously moments) acting on the rigid body.
The Lyapunov equation, named after the Russian mathematician Aleksandr Lyapunov, is a matrix equation used in the stability analysis of linear dynamical systems. [1][2] In particular, the discrete-time Lyapunov equation (also known as Stein equation) for is. where is a Hermitian matrix and is the conjugate transpose of , while the continuous ...
The Müller-Breslau principle is a method to determine influence lines. The principle states that the influence lines of an action (force or moment) assumes the scaled form of the deflection displacement. OR, This principle states that "ordinate of ILD for a reactive force is given by ordinate of elastic curve if a unit deflection is applied in ...
