  2. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    Section modulus is a geometric property for a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members. Other geometric properties used in design include area for tension and shear, radius of gyration for compression, and second moment of area and polar second moment of area for stiffness. Any relationship between these properties is ...

  3. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. 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 ...

  4. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    Definition. Generally speaking, curves representing the relationship between stress and strain in any form of deformation can be regarded as stress–strain curves. The stress and strain can be normal, shear, or mixture, and can also can be uniaxial, biaxial, or multiaxial, even change with time. The form of deformation can be compression ...

  5. Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timoshenko–Ehrenfest_beam...

    The Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory was developed by Stephen Timoshenko and Paul Ehrenfest [ 1][ 2][ 3] early in the 20th century. [ 4][ 5] The model takes into account shear deformation and rotational bending effects, making it suitable for describing the behaviour of thick beams, sandwich composite beams, or beams subject to high ...

  6. Stress–strain analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_analysis

    Stress–strain analysis (or stress analysis) is an engineering discipline that uses many methods to determine the stresses and strains in materials and structures subjected to forces. In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other ...

  7. I-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    The farther a given amount of material is from the neutral axis, the larger is the section modulus and hence a larger bending moment can be resisted. When designing a symmetric I-beam to resist stresses due to bending the usual starting point is the required section modulus. If the allowable stress is σ max and the maximum expected bending ...

  8. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    The four-point flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress-strain response of the material. This test is very similar to the three-point bending flexural test. The major difference being that with the addition of a fourth bearing the portion of the beam ...

  9. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    The modulus of elasticity can be used to determine the stress–strain relationship in the linear-elastic portion of the stress–strain curve. The linear-elastic region is either below the yield point, or if a yield point is not easily identified on the stress–strain plot it is defined to be between 0 and 0.2% strain, and is defined as the ...
