  2. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  3. Bending moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_moment

    Shear and moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. In solid mechanics, a bending moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied to the element, causing the element to bend.

  4. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    Below is a shear, moment, and deflection diagram. A M/EI diagram is a moment diagram divided by the beam's Young's modulus and moment of inertia. To make use of this comparison we will now consider a beam having the same length as the real beam, but referred here as the "conjugate beam." The conjugate beam is "loaded" with the M/EI diagram ...

  5. Stress resultants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_resultants

    These are the stress resultants (also called membrane forces, shear forces, and bending moment) that may be used to determine the detailed stress state in the structural element. A three-dimensional problem can then be reduced to a one-dimensional problem (for beams) or a two-dimensional problem (for plates and shells).

  6. Direct integration of a beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_integration_of_a_beam

    Direct integration is a structural analysis method for measuring internal shear, internal moment, rotation, and deflection of a beam. Positive directions for forces acting on an element. For a beam with an applied weight w ( x ) {\displaystyle w(x)} , taking downward to be positive, the internal shear force is given by taking the negative ...

  7. Influence line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influence_line

    The bending moment diagram and the influence line for bending moment at the centre of the left-hand span, B, are shown. In engineering, an influence line graphs the variation of a function (such as the shear, moment etc. felt in a structural member) at a specific point on a beam or truss caused by a unit load placed at any point along the ...

  8. Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory - Wikipedia

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

    The bending moment and the shear force in the beam are related to the displacement and the rotation . These relations, for a linear elastic Timoshenko beam, are: These relations, for a linear elastic Timoshenko beam, are:

  9. Moment distribution method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_distribution_method

    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.
