  2. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    Plastic section modulus and elastic section modulus can be related by a shape factor k: = = This is an indication of a section's capacity beyond the yield strength of material. The shape factor for a rectangular section is 1.5. [1]

  3. Torsion constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_constant

    The torsion constant or torsion coefficient is a geometrical property of a bar's cross-section. It is involved in the relationship between angle of twist and applied torque along the axis of the bar, for a homogeneous linear elastic bar. The torsion constant, together with material properties and length, describes a bar's torsional stiffness.

  4. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    is the elastic modulus and is the second moment of area of the beam's cross section. I {\displaystyle I} must be calculated with respect to the axis which is perpendicular to the applied loading. [ N 1 ] Explicitly, for a beam whose axis is oriented along x {\displaystyle x} with a loading along z {\displaystyle z} , the beam's cross section is ...

    The Young's modulus of the test beams can be found using the bending IET formula for test beams with a rectangular cross section. The ratio Width/Length of the test plate must be cut according to the following formula: This ratio yields a so-called "Poisson plate".

  6. Elastic properties of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_properties_of_the...

    Elastic properties describe the reversible deformation (elastic response) of a material to an applied stress. They are a subset of the material properties that provide a quantitative description of the characteristics of a material, like its strength. Material properties are most often characterized by a set of numerical parameters called moduli.

  7. Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory - Wikipedia

    is the cross section area. is the elastic modulus. is the shear modulus. is the second moment of area., called the Timoshenko shear coefficient, depends on the geometry. Normally, = / for a rectangular section.

  8. Torsion (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_(mechanics)

    Torsion of a square section bar Example of torsion mechanics. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque [1] [2].Torsion could be defined as strain [3] [4] or angular deformation [5], and is measured by the angle a chosen section is rotated from its equilibrium position [6].

  9. Membrane analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_analogy

    The elastic membrane analogy, also known as the soap-film analogy, was first published by pioneering aerodynamicist Ludwig Prandtl in 1903. [1] [2] It describes the stress distribution on a long bar in torsion. The cross section of the bar is constant along its length, and need not be circular.
