What is the general bending equation for a beam?
MISYER M = Sigma = E I y R bending moment = stress 2nd mom of area displacement of layer from neutral axis = youngs modulus radius of circle containing neutral axis
26
what symbol represents shear stress?
τ tau
27
what is tan ϕ and therefore sheer strain equal to?
distance sheared / distance between two shearing forces
28
what is the unit for the modulus of rigidity?
pa
29
what causes torsional stress?
twisting due to the application of a moment
30
What is a bar under the action of a twisting moment in?
torsion
31
How does deformation and therefore shear strain of a bar under torsion vary?
zero at central axis and maximum at outer surface
32
Is it harder to twist a shorter or longer bar at a given moment?
shorter bar
33
What does a) φ b) θ represent in torsion?
a) shear strain | b) angle of twist
34
What quantifies the resistance to shearing force in torsion?
modulus of rigidity (G): the higher it is the more resistance
35
What are the units for modulus of rigidity?
N/m2 or Pa
36
how can we calculate shear strain of a bar in torsion?
φ = θ x radius / length
37
how do we converts degrees to radians ?
multiply by π/180
38
How can re-distribution of material in a bar help to resist torsion?
hollow bar is more resistant than a solid bar
39
What is the polar second moment of area?
a measure of distribution of the material about a central axis
40
What symbol represents polar second moment of area?
J
41
What are the units for polar second moment of area?

42
How do we calculate polar second moment of area for a solid circle?
J = π d4 / 2
43

M/J = T/R = Gθ/L
44
in the general equation for torsion what is a) M? b) T? c) R? d) G? e) θ? f) L? g) J?
a) twisting moment b) shear stress c) radius of the cross section d) modulus of rigidity e) angle of twist f) length of the bar g) polar second moment of area
45
What is the angle of twist measured in?
radians
46
What is shear stress a) proportional to? b) inversely proportional to?
a) modulus of rigidity, angle of twist and distance of point of interest b) length
47
How are long bones designed to resist torsional loads?
hollow with stronger outer cortex to maximise strength:weight ratio
48
Where do tibia fractures due to torsional loads tend to occur? why?
distally where there is a smaller J so it is less able to resist torsional loads and therefore is more likely to fracture
49
explain how a strain gauge works
gauge is stuck on to a surface and deforms with it to produce electrical resistance that is proportional to the strain and can be measured using an electrical circuit
50
give a positive and a negative for a strain gauge
+ve apply straight to structure so no need for a model -ve work on a few points measuring a few directions so no overall idea of a complete structure
51
explain photoelasticity
model of the structure is made from a polymer and polarised light is shone through while it is loaded in different ways to analyse patterns of stress
52
explain the finite element method
uses computer to make a mathematical model of something where a complex structure is broken down into small parts and loads can be analysed using equations
53
In the general bending equation what does y stand for?
displacement from neutral axis
54
How do we calculate polar second moment of area for a hollow circle?
J = π (d4outer - d4inner)/ 32
55
how do we calculate second moment of area for a circle?
I = πd4/64 | ymax =1/2d
56
how do we calculate second moment of area for a rectangle?
I = bd3/12 ymax =1/2d
57
What does I stand for in the bending equation?
second moment of area
58
What does the polar second moment of area of a structure indicate?
how resistant the material is to axial twisting
59
What beam has the largest bending strength?
the I shaped beam
60
What does the moment of area indicate about a structure?
how resistant the structure is to bending
61
Which is more resistant to bending and twisting a) hollow tube b) solid bar of the same diameter. Why?
hollow tube almost as resistant as solid bar because its mass is distributed further from the neutral axis so it has a greater second moment of area and polar second moment of area
62
Which characteristic of a twisted bar indicates its strength:weight ratio? Why?
polar second moment of area hollow bar stronger per weight material in the centre of a bar is effectively redundant
63
Why are hollow bars not stronger than solid bars in axial tension and compression?
changing to a hollow bar reduces the cross sectional area the force is applied on so axial strength would be reduced
64
What quantifies a materials ability to resist elongation and compression ?
ie its stiffness young's modulus
65
What is the symbol for shearing force?
V
