Bending beam. The transverse load P will produce a shear force V in the positive y-direction on a mathematical cut through the beam at point “a”.This shear force is directly responsible for the shear ...

In this video we explore bending and shear stresses in beams. A bending moment is the resultant of bending stresses, which ...

Here is a short introduction into bearing, shear and tear-out stresses in bolted joints and how complex they can be. Jointing is a basic function of engineering. For example, bolting two parts ...

In this video, we're going to take a look at stress transformation and Mohr’s circle. Stress transformation is a way of ...

For example, ASTM D 2344 1 specifies a support-span-length-to-specimen-thickness ratio (s/t) of only 4:1, as sketched to scale in Fig. 1. The objective is to minimize the flexural (tensile and ...

Dilatants, a type of non-Newtonian fluid, increase in viscosity under shear stress, ... For example, a mixture of cornstarch and water flows like a thick fluid when undisturbed but becomes rigid under ...

The measurement system has a bearing on the rheological measurements, especially in the measurement of yield stress. For example, when shear rheological measurements are being made on structured ...

The transverse load P will produce a shear force V in the positive y direction on a mathematical cut through the beam at point “a”. This shear force is directly responsible for the shear stress τ on ...
