This vibrating glass beam may be modeled as a cantilever beam with acceleration, variable linear density, variable section modulus, some kind of dissipation, springy end loading, and possibly a point mass at the free end. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory (also known as engineer's beam theory or classical beam theory) [1] is a simplification of the ...
The Euler–Bernoulli beam equation defines the behaviour of a beam element (see below). It is based on five assumptions: Continuum mechanics is valid for a bending beam. The stress at a cross section varies linearly in the direction of bending, and is zero at the centroid of every cross section.
The starting point is the relation from Euler-Bernoulli beam theory = Where is the deflection and is the bending moment. This equation [7] is simpler than the fourth-order beam equation and can be integrated twice to find if the value of as a function of is known.
In structural engineering and mechanical engineering, generalised beam theory (GBT) is a one-dimensional theory used to mathematically model how beams bend and twist under various loads. It is a generalization of classical Euler–Bernoulli beam theory that approximates a beam as an assembly of thin-walled plates that are constrained to deform ...
The theory of poroelasticity has been widely applied in geomechanics, [3] hydrology, [4] biomechanics, [5] tissue mechanics, [6] cell mechanics, [7] and micromechanics. [ 8 ] An intuitive sense of the response of a saturated elastic porous medium to mechanical loading can be developed by thinking about, or experimenting with, a fluid-saturated ...
Saint-Venant's principle, named after Adhémar Jean Claude Barré de Saint-Venant, a French elasticity theorist, may be expressed as follows: [1]... the difference between the effects of two different but statically equivalent loads becomes very small at sufficiently large distances from load.

If the section is symmetric, isotropic and is not curved before a bend occurs, then the neutral axis is at the geometric centroid of a beam or shaft. All fibers on one side of the neutral axis are in a state of tension, while those on the opposite side are in compression. Since the beam is undergoing uniform bending, a plane on the beam remains ...
