  2. Influence line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influence_line

    Figure 1: (a) This simple supported beam is shown with a unit load placed a distance x from the left end. Its influence lines for four different functions: (b) the reaction at the left support (denoted A), (c) the reaction at the right support (denoted C), (d) one for shear at a point B along the beam, and (e) one for moment also at point B. Figure 2: The change in Bending Moment in a ...

  3. Müller-Breslau's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Müller-Breslau's_principle

    Part (d) of the figure shows the influence line for shear at point B. Using the beam sign convention and cutting the beam at B, we can deduce the figure shown. Part (e) of the figure shows the influence line for the bending moment at point B. Again making a cut through the beam at point B and using the beam sign convention, we can deduce the ...

  4. Statically indeterminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statically_indeterminate

    In statics and structural mechanics, a structure is statically indeterminate when the equilibrium equations – force and moment equilibrium conditions – are insufficient for determining the internal forces and reactions on that structure.

  5. Betti's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betti's_theorem

    Betti's theorem, also known as Maxwell–Betti reciprocal work theorem, discovered by Enrico Betti in 1872, states that for a linear elastic structure subject to two sets of forces {P i} i=1,...,n and {Q j}, j=1,2,...,n, the work done by the set P through the displacements produced by the set Q is equal to the work done by the set Q through the displacements produced by the set P.

  6. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    Here the conjugate beam has a free end, since at this end there is zero shear and zero moment. Corresponding real and conjugate supports are shown below. Note that, as a rule, neglecting axial forces, statically determinate real beams have statically determinate conjugate beams; and statically indeterminate real beams have unstable conjugate ...

  7. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    Euler–Bernoulli beam theory (also known as engineer's beam theory or classical beam theory) [1] is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load-carrying and deflection characteristics of beams. It covers the case corresponding to small deflections of a beam that is subjected to lateral ...

  8. Prime Rib vs. Standing Rib Roast: What’s the Difference? - AOL

    www.aol.com/prime-rib-vs-standing-rib-170000298.html

    The bottom line: All standing rib roasts are prime rib roasts, but not all prime rib roasts are standing rib roasts. As the name implies, a standing rib roast is cooked “standing,” so the ...

  9. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    A beam may be defined as an element in which one dimension is much greater than the other two and the applied loads are usually normal to the main axis of the element. Beams and columns are called line elements and are often represented by simple lines in structural modeling. cantilevered (supported at one end only with a fixed connection)
