Left side is fixed and right side is held together by a non deformable plate. There are two members with space inbetween. My question is when i want to calculate the stress due to bending moment at point A, which is shown in the crossection, where is the neutral axis? Is it at the middle of the...

In engineering statics I've learned the concept of bending moment, which in some way indicates an applied load that tends to bend the object, and it seems that it can move around freely in the reference frame. (I understand moment in engineering is not quite the same concept as torque in physics...

TL;DR Summary: Finding maximum bending moment on a boom I am trying to solve the problem stated in the picture below. The answers are given. I've manage to find the Normal and Shear Forces but I'm stuck at the bending moment. According to my analysis the maximum bending moment is +7208,1...

How can I find the maximum bending moment and maximum deflection for a spring? It would be very helpful if you could explain the specific procedure and formula in an easy-to-understand manner. that's all, thank you very much.

Hello, I have an flexure where the force is applied asymmetrical, I just can't visualize why their should be a bending moment instead of an bending force? How can I distinguish those? Thanks!

Some more details on the system are that L1 is very long (close to 100ft) and L2 is close to 30ft (the vertical pipes). The piping is all schedule 40 1/2" OD. Moment of inertia is roughly 10^-8. Components are about 2kg each. The distance of the pipes horizontally is small (around 2ft). Pressure...

To determine the reactions at B and F, I don't know how to handle that L-shaped beam connected to the horizontal beam. My attempt is: $$\sum F_{y} \colon\;\;\; -200 + R_{B} - 75 + 32 + R_{F} - 1632 = 0$$ from which it follows that ##R_{B} + R_{F} = 1875##. $$\sum M_{B} \colon\;\;\; -5 \times...

Hello: I was looking for a widespread convention (akin to Hibbeler's, Beer's, etc) that deals with the sign convention of a vertical bar for bending moments. For example, without knowing in advance, how do I draw the bending moment at a cut passing through point E in the figure attached? Beam...

I am confused why positive value of bending moment is plotted under the axis?

Hi, I'm trying to solve an exemplary case of a cantilever plate (one long edge fixed, all other edges free) subjected to pressure. I've already calculated this using approximation to beam of unit width and the results are good but I would like to use another method too. In a polish book I've...

But the correct solution is M= P* (b2+b1). I don't understand how b2+b1 is the perpendicular distance.

I have a quesrion about forming the eqaution of moment equilibrium. As shown in the picture at cut 1 there are 2 vertical forces and a bending moment. I expect V=A. If I apply moment equilibrium about the point where the bending moment is, we get that Ay*x = M(1). But how about if I take moment...

M = r x F r = 0 ∴ M = 0 But this is clearly wrong. For some reason, the "reaction moment" must exist. Why? Where does it come from? More specifically, which force(s) produces the bending moment, and at what distance(s)? Does it come from the reaction force form the wall on the left end of the...

Hello all I was wondering if anyone could figure out the what the equation below means, specifically the W term? The equation to calculate bending stress for a cross section that i have used and i know is correct is:- Bending Stress = Moment (M) * Distance From Neutral Axis (Z) / Second...

The direction of x, y and a axes were shown in the highlighted part.. I think it is wrong. For red circled beam, i kinda agree that Moment about x-axis was defined as torsional moment.. While moment about z and y axes are bending moment... But for blue circled beam, I think that Moment about z...
