Finals Flashcards
This will determine the strength of a material on its ability to sustain a load
without due deformation or failure.
Torsion
A device that is used to measure changes in the length of an object
Extensometer
When an external torque is applied to a shaft, it creates a corresponding
internal torque within the shaft.
Torsional shearing
stress
It is a moment that tends to twist a member about its longitudinal axis.
Torque
Defined as the work performed per unit of time.
Power
Force parallel to the area resisting the force.
Shear Stress
The angle θ through which the bar length L will twist.
Angle of Twist
In most cases, load are perpendicular to the axis of the beam.
True HAHAHA
Members that are slender and support loadings that are applied
perpendicular to their longitudinal axis.
Beams
Usually long, straight prismatic members.
Beams
Transverse loading causes only what?
Bending (M) and Shear
(V) in beam
It has one or both of its ends freely extended over the supports.
Overhanging Beams
Pinned at one end and roller supported at the other.
Simply supported beam
The transverse loading of beam may consist of ______ & _______
Concentrated and
Distributed Loads
Fixed at one end and free at the other.
Cantilever beam
6 types of Beams
Simply supported beam
Overhanging beam
Cantilever beam
Continuous beam
Beam fixed at one end
and simply supported
at the other end
Fixed Beam
The force that acts parallel to the cross-section of a structural element.
Obtained by summing forces perpendicular to the beam’s axis.
Shear force
The bending moment at any given point of a beam is positive when the
external forces (loads and reactions) acting on the beam tend to bend the
beam.
Determinations of
shear force and bending
moment
The shear at any given point of a beam is positive when the external forces
(loads and reactions) acting on the beam tend to shear off the beam.
Determinations of
shear force and bending
moment
The shear at any given point of a beam is ________ when the external forces
(loads and reactions) acting on the beam tend to shear off the beam.
positive
What are the external Forces
Loads and Reactions
