1. Shear force and bending moment diagrams
Internal Forces in solids
Sign conventions
• Shear forces are given a special symbol on yV 12
and zV
• The couple moment along the axis of the member is given
xM T= = Torque
y zM M= =bending moment.
Solid Mechanics
We need to follow a systematic sign convention for systematic development of equations and reproducibility of the equations
The sign convention is like this.
If a face (i.e. formed by the cutting plane) is +ve if its outward normal unit vector points towards any of the positive coordinate directions otherwise it is –ve face
• A force component on a +ve face is +ve if it is directed towards any of the +ve coordinate axis direction. A force component on a –ve face is +ve if it is directed towards any of the –ve coordinate axis direction. Otherwise it is –v.
Thus sign conventions depend on the choice of coordinate axes.
Shear force and bending moment diagrams of beams Beam is one of the most important structural components.
• Beams are usually long, straight, prismatic members and always subjected forces perpendicular to the axis of the beam
Two observations:
(1) Forces are coplanar
Solid Mechanics
(2) All forces are applied at the axis of the beam.
Application of method of sections
What are the necessary internal forces to keep the segment of the beam in equilibrium?

force and bending moment along the length of the beam.
These diagrams are extremely useful while designing the beams for various applications.
Supports and various types of beams
(a) Roller Support – resists vertical forces only
(b) Hinge support or pin connection – resists horizontal and vertical forces
Hinge and roller supports are called as simple supports
(c) Fixed support or built-in end
Solid Mechanics
The distance between two supports is known as “span”.
Types of beams
Beams are classified based on the type of supports.
(1) Simply supported beam: A beam with two simple supports
(2) Cantilever beam: Beam fixed at one end and free at other
(3) Overhanging beam
(4) Continuous beam: More than two supports

State of stress at a point
The totality of all the stress vectors acting on every possible plane passing through the point is defined to be state of stress at a point.
• State of stress at a point is important for the designer in determining the critical planes and the respective critical stresses.
• If the stress vectors [and hence the component] acting on any three mutually perpendicular planes passing through the point are known, we can determine the stress vector nT

point.
The stress tensor will specify the state stress at point.

As in case of 3D, the state of stress at a point in a plane stress domain is the totality of all the stress. If we know the stress components on any two mutually ⊥ planes then stress components on any arbitrary plane m-m can be determined. Thus the stress tensor

• nnσ and ntτ equations are known as transformation laws for plane stress.
• They are not only useful in determination of stresses on any plane but also useful in transforming stresses from one coordinate system to another
• Transformation laws do not require an equilibrium state and thus are also valid at all points of the body under accelerations.
• These laws are true for any point P of a body.

4. Principal Stresses Principal Stresses
Now we are in position to compute the direction and magnitude of the stress components on any inclined plane at any point, provided if we know the state of stress (Plane stress) at that point. We also know that any engineering component fails when the internal forces or stresses reach a particular value of all the stress components on all of the infinite number of planes only stress components on some particular planes are important for solving our basic question i.e under the action of given loading whether the component will ail or not? Therefore our objective of this class is to determine these plane and their corresponding stresses.

(7) Let us se the properties of above stress.
(1) P P sπθ θ= +2 1 2
- planes on which maximum normal stress
and minimum normal stress act are ⊥ to each other.

(4) maximum and minimum normal stresses are collectively called as principal stresses.
(5) Planes on which maximum and minimum normal stress act are known as principal planes.
(6) Pθ1
and Pθ2
that define the principal planes are known as
principal directions.
(8) Let us find the planes on which shearing stresses are zero.
( )nt x y xySin Cosτ σ σ θ τ θ= = − − +0 2 2

Thus on the principal planes no shearing stresses act. Conversely, the planes on which no shearing stress acts are known as principal planes and the corresponding normal stresses are principal stresses. For example the state of stress at a point is as shown.
Then xσ and yσ are
principal stresses because no shearing stresses are acting on these planes.
Solid Mechanics
(9) Since, principal planes are ⊥ to each other at a point P, this also means that if an element whose sides are parallel to the principal planes is taken out at that point P, then it will be subjected to principal stresses. Observe that no shearing stresses are acting on the four faces, because shearing stresses must be zero on principal planes.
(10) Since 1σ and 2σ are in two ⊥ directions, we can easily say that

5. Maximum shear stress Maximum and minimum shearing stresses

6. Mohr’s circle Mohr’s circle for plane stress
So far we have seen two methods to find stresses acting on an inclined plane
(a) Wedge method (b) Use of transformation laws.
Another method which is purely graphical approaches is known as the Mohr’s circle for plane stress.
A major advantage of Mohr’s circle is that, the state of the stress at a point, i.e the stress components acting on all infinite number of planes can be viewed graphically.

From the above deviation it can be seen that any point P on the Mohr’s circle represents stress which are acting on a plane passing through the point.
In this way we can completely visualize the stresses acting on all infinite planes.
Solid Mechanics
(3) Construction of Mohr’s circle
Let us assume that the state of stress at a point is given
A typical problem using Mohr’s circle i.e given x y,σ σ′ ′ and
x yτ ′ ′ on an inclined element. For the sake of clarity we
assume that, x y, sσ σ′ ′ and x yτ ′ ′ all are positive and x yσ σ>
Solid Mechanics
• Since any point on the circle represents the stress components on a plane passing through the point. Therefore we can locate the point A on the circle.
• The coordinates of the plane ( )x xyA ,σ τ= + +
Therefore we can locate the point A on the circle with
coordinates ( )x xy, sσ τ+ +
• Therefore the line AC represents the x-axis. Moreover,
the normal of the A-plane makes 0�w.r.t the x-axis.
• In a similar way we can locate the point B corresponding to the plane B.
Solid Mechanics
The coordinates of ( )y xyB , sσ τ= + −
Since we assumed that for the sake of similarity y xsσ σ< .
Therefore the point B diametrically opposite to point A.
• The line BC represents y- axis. The point A corresponds
to Q = 0� , and pt. B corresponds to Q = 90�(+ve) of the stress element.
At this point of time we should be able to observe two important points.
• The end points of a diameter represents stress components on two ⊥ planes of the stress element.
• The angle between x- axis and the plane B is 90° (c.c.w) in the stress element. The line CA in Mohr’s circle represents x- axis and line CB represents y-axis or plane B. It can be seen that, the angle between x-axis and y-axis in the Mohr’s circle is 180° (c.c.w). Thus 2Q in Mohr’s circle corresponds to Q in the stress element diagram.
Stresses on an inclined element
• Point A corresponds to 0Q = on the stress element. Therefore the line CA i.e x-axis becomes reference line from which we measure angles.
• Now we locate the point “D” on the Mohr’s circle such that the line CD makes an angle of 2Q c.c.w from the x-axis or line CA. we choose c.c.w because in the stress element also Q is in c.c.w direction.
Solid Mechanics
• The coordinates or stresses corresponding to point D on the Mohr’s circle represents the stresses on the x′ - face or D on the stress element.

Calculation of principal stress
The most important application of the Mohr’s circle is determination of principal stresses.
The intersection of the Mohr’s circle --- with normal stress axis gives two points P1 andP2 . Thus P1 and P2 represents points corresponding to principal stresses. In the current diagram the coordinates the of

The principal direction corresponding to σ1 is now equal to
pθ1
2 , in c.c.w direction from the x-axis.
Solid Mechanics
p pπθ θ= ±
2 1 2
We can see that the points P1 andP2 are diametrically opposite, this indicate that principal planes are ⊥ to each other in the stress element. This fact can also be verified from the Mohr’s circle.
In- plane maximum shear stress
What are points on the circle at which the shearing stress are reaching maximum values numerically? Points S1 and S2 at the top and bottom of the Mohr’s circle.
• The points S1 and S2 are at angles θ =2 90� from pointsP1 P2 and, i.e the planes of maximum shear stress
are oriented at ±45� to the principal planes.
• Unlike the principal stresses, the planes of maximum shear stress are not free from the normal stresses. For example the coordinates of

Mohr’s circle can be plotted in two different ways. Both the methods are mathematically correct.
Solid Mechanics
Finally
• Intersection of Mohr’s circle with the σ -axis gives principal stresses.
• The top and bottom points of Mohr’s circle gives maximum –ve shear stress and maximum +ve shear stress.
• Do not forget that all these inclined planes are obtained by rotation about z-axis.

• The maximum normal stress 1σ and maximum shear stress maxτ and their corresponding planes govern the failure of the engineering materials.

Octahedral planes and stresses
If x y zn n n= = w.r.t to the principal planes, then these planes
are known as octahedral planes. The corresponding stresses are known as octahedral stresses.

Therefore, the state of stress at a point can be represented with reference to
(i) stress components of x,y,z coordinate system
(ii) stress components of x’,y’z’ coordinate system
(iii) using principal stresses
(iv) using octahedral shear and normal stresses
We can prove that:
octτ is smaller than maxτ (exist only on 4 planes) but can exist on 8 planes at a point.

9. Deformation and strain analysis
Two types of deformation have been observed for an infinitesimal element.
Deformation of the whole body = Sum of deformations of
Deformation is described by measuring two quantities.
(1)Elongation or contraction of a line segment
(2)Rotation of any two ⊥ lines.
Measure of deformations of an infinitesimal element is known as strain.
• The strain component that measures elongation or construction – normal strain -ε
• The strain component that measures rotation of any two ⊥lines is – shearing strain- γ

Strain displacement relations: Strains are due to deformation as displacement so there must be some relation between deformational displacements and strains. So let us consider the side of the elementPQRS . We shall demonstrate that ‘w’ has no impact. So it can be neglected.

10. Stress strain diagrams • Bar or rod – the longitudinal direction is considerably
greater than the other two, namely the dimensions of cross section.
• For the design of the m/c components we need to understand about “mechanical behavior” of the materials.
• We need to conduct experiments in laboratory to observe the mechanical behavior.
• The mathematical equations that describe the mechanical behavior is known as “constitutive equations or laws”
• Many tests to observe the mechanical behavior- tensile test is the most important and fundamental test- as we gain or get lot of information regarding mechanical behavior of metals
• Tensile test Tensile test machine, tensile test specimen, extensometer, gage length, static test-slowly varying loads, compression test.
Stress -strain diagrams
After performing a tension or compression tests and determining the stress and strain at various magnitudes of load, we can plot a diagram of stress Vs strain.
Solid Mechanics
Such is a characteristic of the particular material being tested and conveys important information regarding mechanical behavior of that metal.
We develop some ideas and basic definitions using σ −∈ curve of the mild steel.
Structural steel = mild steel = 0.2% carbon=low carbon steel
Region O-A
(1) σ and ∈ linearly proportional.
(2) A- Proportional limit
pσ - proportionality is maintained.
(3) Slope of AO = modulus of elasticity “E” – N/m2,Pa
(4) Strains are infinites ional.

Solid Mechanics
Region A-B
(1) Strain increases more rapidly than σ
(2) Elastic in this range
Proportionality is lost.
Region B-C
(1) The slope at point B is horizontal.
(2) At this point B, ∈ increases without increase in further load. I.e no noticeable change in load.
(3) This phenomenon is known as yielding
(4) The point B is said to be yield points, the corresponding stress is yield stress ysσ of the steel.
(5) In region B-C material becomes “perfectly plastic i.e which means that it deforms without an increase in the applied load.
(6) Elongation of steel specimen or ∈ in the region BC is typically 10 to 20 times the elongation that occurs in region OA.
(7) s∈ below the point A are said to be small, and s∈ above A are said to be large.
(8) s A∈ <∈ are said to be elastic strains and A∈>∈ are said to be plastic strains = large strains = deformations are permanent.
Solid Mechanics
Region C-D
(1)The steel begins to “strain harden” at “C” . During strain hardening the material under goes changes in its crystalline structure, resulting in increased resistance to the deformation.
(2)Elongation of specimen in this region requires additional load,
∴ σ −∈ diagram has + ve slope C to D.
(3) The load reaches maximum value – ultimate stress.
(4)The yield stress and ultimate stress of any material is also known as yield strength and the ultimate strength .
(5) uσ is the highest stress the component can take up.
Region-DE
Further stretching of the bar is needed less force than ultimate force, and finally the component breaks into two parts at E.
Solid Mechanics
Look of actual stress strain diagrams
C toE BtoC Oto A∈ >∈ >∈
(1) Strains from O to A are
so small in comparison to the
strains from A to E that they
cannot be seen.
(2) The presence of well defined
yield point and subsequent large
plastic strains are characteristics of mild – steel.
(3) Metals such a structural steel that undergo large permanent strains before failure are classified as ductile metals.
Ex. Steel, aluminum, copper, nickel, brass, bronze, magnesium, lead etc.
Aluminum alloys – Offset method
(1) They do not have clear cut yield point.
(2) They have initial straight line portion with clear proportional limit.
(3) All does not have obvious
yield point, but undergoes
large permanent strains after
proportional limit.
(4) Arbitrary yield stress is
Solid Mechanics
determined by off- set method.
(5) Off-set yield stress is not material property
Elasticity & Plasticity
(1) The property of a material by which it (doesn’t) returns to its original dimensions during unloading is called (plasticity) elasticity and the material is said to be elastic (plastic).
(2) For most of the metals proportional limit = elastic limit.
(3) For practical purpose proportional limit = elastic limit = yield stress
(4 )All metals have some amount of straight line portion.
Solid Mechanics
Brittle material in tension
(1) Materials that fail in tension at relatively low values of strain are classified or brittle materials.
(2) Brittle materials fail with only little elongation (elastic) after the proportional limit.
(3)Fracture stress = Ultimate stress for brittle materials
(4)Up to B, i.e fracture strains are elastic.
(5)No plastic deformation in case of brittle materials.
Ex. Concrete, stone, cast iron, glass, ceramics
Ductile metals under compression
Solid Mechanics
(1) σ −∈ curves in compression differ from σ −∈ in tension.
(2)For ductile materials, the proportional limit and the initial portion of the σ −∈ curve is same in tension and compression.
(3)After yielding starts the behavior is different for tension and compression.
(4)In tension after yielding – specimen elongates – necking and fractures or rupture. In compression – specimen bulges out- with increasing load the specimen is flattened out and offers greatly increased resistance.
Brittle materials in compression
(1)Curves are similar both in tension and compression
(2)The proportional limit and ultimate stress i.e fracture stress are different.
(3)In case of compression both are greater than tension case
(4)Brittle material need not have linear portion always they can be non-linear also.
Solid Mechanics
11. Generalized Hooke’s Law
(1) A material behaves elastically and also exhibits a linear relationship between σ and ∈ is said to be linearly elastic.
(2) All most all engineering materials are linearly elastic up to their corresponding proportional limit.
(3) This type of behavior is extremely important in engineering – all structures designed to operate within this region.
(4) Within this region, we know that either in tension or compression
EStress in particular direction straininthat dir.X Eσ = ∈

E =Modulus of elasticity –Pa,N / m2
= Young’s modulus of elasticity.
(5) x xEσ = ∈ or y yEσ = ∈
(6) Eσ = ∈ is known as Hooke’s law.
(7) Hooke’s law is valid up to the proportional limit or within the linear elastic zone.

Hooks law in shear
(1)To plot ,Yτ the test is twisting of hollow circular tubes
(2) ,Yτ diagrams are (shape of them) similar in shape to tension test diagrams ( )Vsσ ∈ for the same material,
although they differ in magnitude.
(3)From Yτ − diagrams also we can obtain material properties proportional limit, modulus of elasticity, yield stress and ultimate stress.
(4)Properties are usually ½ of the tension properties.
(5)For many materials, the initial part o the shear stress diagram is a st. line through the origin just in case of tension.

Basic assumptions solid mechanics
Fundamental assumptions of linear theory of elasticity are:
(a) The deformable body is a continuum
(b) The body is homogeneous
(c) The body is linearly elastic
(d) The body is isotropic
(e) The body undergoes small deformations.
Continuum
Completely filling up the region of space with matter it occupies with no empty space.
Because of this assumption quantities like

What are the stress –strain relation for an element subjected to 3D state of stress. i.e what is the generalized Hooke’s law.
Hooke’s law – when only one stress is acting
Generalized Hooke’s law – when more than one stress acting
We assume that
Material is linearly elastic, Homogeneous, Continuum, undergoing small deformations and isotropic.
For an isotropic material the following are true
(1)Normal stress can only generate normal strains.
- Normal stresses for reference xyz cannot produce Y of this
reference
Solid Mechanics
(2)A shear stress say xyτ can only produce the corresponding
shear strain xyY in the same coordinate system.
Principal of superposition:
This principle states that the effect of a given combined loading on a structure can be obtained by determining separately the effects of the various loads individually and combining the results obtained, provided the following conditions are satisfied.
(1)Each effect is linearly related to the load that produces it.
(2)The deformations must be small.

Geometry, locating and material properties
• A prismatic bar is subjected to axial loading
• A prismatic bar is a st. structural member having constant cross-section through out it length.
• Bar or rod →length of the member is � cross sectional dimensions.
Axial force is a load directed along the axis of the member – can create tension or compression in the member.
Typical cross sections of the members
- Solid Sections
- Hollow Sections
Solid Mechanics
Material properties: The member is homogenous linearly elastic and isotropic material.
Stresses, strains and deformations
Consider a prismatic bar of constant cross-sectional area A and length L, with material properties A & v. Let the rod be subjected to an axial force “p”, which acts along x-axis.

Above equation must be satisfied at every cross-section, however, it does not tell how xσ is distributed in the cross-section.
The distribution cannot determine by the methods of static or equations of equilibrium- statically indeterminate
To know about the distribution of xσ in any given section, it is necessary to consider the deformations resulting from the application of loads.
Since the body needs to develop only xσ component in order to maintain equilibrium, therefore the state of stress at any point of prismatic rod is

We make the following assumptions on deformation based on experimental evidence
(1)The axis of the bar remains straight after deformation
(2)All plane cross-sections remain plane and perpendicular to the axis of the bar
Key kinematical assumptions
• As a result of the above kinematic assumptions all points in a given y-z plane have the same displacements in the x-direction.
• Any line segment AB undergoes same strain x∈ therefore
x∈ cannot be a function of y or z, but at most is a function of x- only.
In the present case situation is same at all cross-sections of the prismatic bar, therefore

A prismatic bar of circular cross- section subjected to equal and opposite torques acting at the ends.
Whenever torques act on a member, then it will be twisted.
Torsion refers to the twisting of a straight bar when it is loaded by torques.

Equilibrium and elementary forces
Since every cross-section of the bar is identical and since every cross-section is subjected to the same internal torque “T”, then the bar is said to be under “pure torsion”

While the relation in (1) express an important condition that must be satisfied by the shearing stresses xQτ in any given
cross-section of the bar it does not tell how these stresses are distributed in the cross-section.
The actual distribution of stresses under a given load is statically indeterminate. So we must know about the deformation of the bar.

Following observations can be made from the deformation of a circular bar subjected to equal and opposite end torques.
(1)The cross-sections of the bar do not change in shape i.e they remain circular.
(2)A line parallel to the x- axis or longitudinal line become a helical curve.
(3)All cross-sections remain plane.
(4)All cross-sections rotate about the axis of the bar as a solid rigid slab.

(5)However, various cross-sections along the bar rotate through different amount.
(6)The radial lines remain radial lines after deformation
(7)Neither the length of the bar nor the length of radius will change.
These are especially of circular bars only. Not true for non-circular bars.
Assumptions on deformation for pure torsion
(1)All cross –sections rotate with respect to the axis of the circular bar i.e x-axis.
(2)All cross-sections remain plane and remain perpendicular to the axis of the bar.
(3)Radial lines remain straight after the deformation.
(4)Neither the length of the bar nor its radius will change during the deformation.
These assumptions are correct only if the circular bar undergoes “small deformations” only.

In case of pure torsion the shear strain Y varies linearly with “r”
Maximum shear strain Y occurs at the outer surface of the circular bar i.e., r R=
Shear strain is zero at the center of the bar.
The equation dY rdxφ= is strictly valid to circular bars having
small deformations.
If the material is linearly elastic
Therefore, variation of shear stress xQτ in pure torsion is

Hollow circular bars: The deformation of hollow circular bars and solid circular bars are same. The key kinematic assumptions are valid for any circular bar, either solid or hollow. Therefore all equations of solid circular bars can be employed for hollow circular bars, instead of using
yV = 0∴
zV = 0∴
Solid Mechanics
Hollow bars are move efficient than solid bars of same “A”.
• Most of the material in soild shaft is stressed below the maximum stress and also have smaller moment arm “r”.
• In hollow tube most of the material is near the outer boundary, where τ is maximum values and has large moment arms “r”.

Stresses in pure torsion
If a torsion bar is made up of brittle material, which is generally weak in tension, failure will occur in tension along
a helix inclined at 45�to the axis.
Ductile materials generally fail in shear. When subjected to torsion, a ductile circular bar breaks along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal axis or x – axis.

Limitations of torsion formulae
(1)The above solutions are exact for pure torsion of circular members (solid or hollow section)
(2)Above equations can be applied to bars (solid or hollow) with varying cross-sections only when changes in ( )R x are small and gradual.
(3)Stresses determined from the torsion formula are valid in regions of the bar away from stress concentrations, which are high localized stresses that occur whenever diameter changes abruptly and whenever concentrated torque are applied.
(4)It is important to recognize that, the above equation should not be used for bars of other shapes. Noncircular bars under torsion are entirely different from circular bars.

15. Symmetrical bending of beams Some basics
• Transverse loads or lateral loads: Forces or moments having their vectors perpendicular to the axis of the bar.
• Classification of structural members.
• Axially loaded bars :- Supports forces having their vectors directed along the axis of the bar.
• Bar in tension:- Supports torques having their moment vectors directed along the axis.
• Beams :- Subjected to lateral loads.
• Beams undergo bending (flexure) because of lateral loads.
Solid Mechanics
Roughly speaking, “bending” refers to a change in shape from a straight configuration to a non straight configuration.
Bending moments i.e zM and yM are responsible for
bending of beams.
The loads acting on a beam cause the beam to bend or flex, thereby deforming its axis into a curve-known as “ deflection curve” of the beam.
If all points inx y− plane remain in the xy − plane after deformation i.e after bending then xy − plane is known as “plane of bending”.
If a beam bend in a particular plane, then the deflection curve is a plane curve lying in the plane of bending.
Solid Mechanics
The y −direction displacement [i.e. v −component] of any point along its axis is known as the “deflection of the beam”.
Pure bending and non-uniform bending
If the internal bending moment is constant at all sections then beam is said to be under “pure bending”.
dM Vdx

Pure bending (i.e., M=constant) occurs only in regions of a beam where the shear force is zero.
If ( )M M x= it is non- uniform bending

Curvature of a beam
When loads are applied to the beam, if it bends in a plane say xy −plane, then its longitudinal axis is deformed into a curve.

Symmetrical bending of beams in a state of pure bending
Geometry, loading and material properties
A long prismatic member possess a plane of symmetry subjected to equal and opposite couples M0 (or bending moments) acting in the same plane of symmetry.
Solid Mechanics
Initially we choose origin of the coordinate system “O ” is not at the centroid of the cross-section.
The y −axis passing through the cross-section is an axis of symmetry. The XY plane is the plane of symmetry.
Material is homogeneous, linearly elastic and isotropic undergoing small deformations.

Deformations in a symmetric member in pure bending
Since the member is subjected to bending moments, it will bend under the action of these couples.
Since, the prismatic member possessing a plane of symmetry (i.e xy- plane) and subjected to equal and opposite couples M0 acting in the plane of symmetry, the member will bend in the plane of symmetry (i.e xy plane).
The curvature k at a particular point on the axis of the beam depends on the bending moment at that point. Therefore a prismatic beam in pure bending will have constant curvature.
The line AB, which was originally a straight line, will be transformed in to a circle of center O and so the line A B′ ′.
Solid Mechanics
Decrease in length of AB and increase in length of A B′ ′ in positive bending.
Cross-sections which are plane and ⊥ to the axis of the undeformed beam, remain plane and remain⊥ to the axis of the deformed beam i.e to the deflection curve.
Kinematic assumption
Variation of strain and M κ− relation
Elementary theory of bending or Euler-Bernoulli theory
Under the action of M0 , the beam deflects in the xy – plane (plane of symmetry) and any longitudinal fibers such as SS bent into a circular curve. The beam is bent concave upward (due to +ve bending) upon which is a +ve curvature.
Solid Mechanics
Cross-sections mn and pq remain plane and normal to the longitudinal axis of the beam. Cross-sections mn and pq rotate with respect to each other about z-axis.
Lower part of the beam is intension and upper part is in compression.

• This result shows that a beam of square cross-section is more efficient in resisting bending then circular beam of same area.
• A circle has a relatively larger amount of material located near the neutral axis. This material is less highly stresses.
• I - Section is more efficient then a rectangular cross-section of the same area and height, because I - section has most of the material in the flanges at the greatest available distance from the neutral axis.

Bending of beams due to applied lateral loads
Consider now a beam subjected to typical arbitrary transverse loads acting. In this case the interval bending moment ( )M M x= and ( )V x ≠ 0, and thus we have non-uniform bending.
Non-uniform bending is a result of presence of transverse shear force ( )V y . If ( )V y = 0 then M = constant.
It can be shown that the above results can also be used for non-uniform bending problems.

The above results can also be used for non-uniform bending problems provided if they satisfy the following conditions.
• The cross-sections should have y-axis of symmetry
• All applied transverse or lateral loads should lie in the x-y plane of symmetry and all applied couples act about z-axis only.
• L h longslender beams− −�
• Bending that conforms to conditions (i) and (ii) is called symmetrical bending.
If these three conditions are satisfied then one can employ the following expressions for non-uniform bending as-well
Solid Mechanics
Application of above equations to the non-uniform bending problems is equivalent to the following two assumptions.
(a)That even under such loading conditions, plane sections still remain plane after deformation and they remain ⊥ to the deformed longitudinal axis or neutral surface.
Bending stresses in a non-prismatic beam

Warping of the cross sections due to shear stress
Plane sections will not remain plane and perpendicular to the axis of the beam in the deformed configuration due to the presence of shear force.
The cross-sections are wrapped with highest distortion at the axis.
It can be shown that if L h>> then distortion of cross-sections due to shear negligible.
Use all formulae developed so far only when L h>> - such beams are called slender beams.
Do not apply them if L h<< -- short beams.

Maximum Normal stress criterion or Rankine Theory:
This theory is generally used for design of components made up of brittle materials.
* Excellent experimental evidence is available for supporting maximum shearing stress and Von Mises criterion
Solid Mechanics
According to this theory, a given structural component fails when the maximum normal stress (tensile) in that component reaches the ultimate strength or ultimate stress ultσ obtained from the tensile test of a specimen of the same material.
Thus the structural component will fail when

20. Deflection of beams When a beam with a straight longitudinal axis is loaded by lateral loads, the axis is deformed into a curve, called the “deflection curve” or “elastic-curve”
Deflections: means u ,v displacement of any particle. In case of beams deflection means v displacement of particles located on the axis of the beam.
Deflection calculation is an important part of component design
Deflections -- useful in vibration, analysis of various engineering components ex. Earthquake loading.
Undesirable vibrations are due to excessive deflections.
Solid Mechanics
Approximate sketches of deflection curves
Approximate sketches of the deflection curve can be drawn if BM diagram is available for a given loading.

Examples

Solid Mechanics
The objective is to find the shape of the elastic curve or deflection curve for given loads i.e., what is the function v(x).
There are two approaches
(1) Differential equations of the deflection curve
(2) Moment-area method
Differential equations of the deflection curve
Consider a cantilever beam: The axis of the beam deforms into a curve as shown due to load P.
Here we assume only symmetrical bending case. The xy plane is the plane of bending.
v↓ − deflection of the beam.
v ve↑ + and. v↓ −
To obtain deflection curve we must express v as a function of x.
Solid Mechanics
When the beam is bent, there is not only a deflection at each point along the axis but also a rotation.
The angle of rotation θ of the axis of the beam is the angle between x – axis and the tangent to the deflection curve at a point.

is positive when the tangent to the curve slopes

The deflection curves of most beams have very small angles of rotations, very small deflection and very small curvatures. That is they undergo small deformations.
When the angle of rotation θ is extremely small, the deflection curve is nearly horizontal
Solid Mechanics

This follows from the fact that
( )ds dx dv v dx′= + = + 22 2 1
for small θ ( )v′ 2 can be neglected compared to 1

Therefore, in small deflection theory no difference in length is said to exist between the initial length of the axis and the arc of the elastic curve.

Assumptions involved in the above equations

(b) Slope of deflection curve small – small deformations
(c) Deformations due to bending only – shear neglected
When sketching deflection curve we greatly exaggerate the deflection for clarity. Otherwise they actually are very small quantities.

The method for finding deflection using differential equations is known as “ method of successive integration”.
Application of principle of superposition: Numerous problems with different loadings have been solved and readily available. Therefore in practice the deflection of beam subjected to several or complicated loading conditions are solved using principle of superposition.

21. Moment- Area Method This method is based upon two theorems related to the area of the bending moment diagram it is called moment-area method.
First moment area theorem
Consider segment AB of the deflection curve of a beam in region of + ve curvature.
The equation
d MEIdx
θ =2
2 can be written as
d d Mdx EIdx
θ θ= =2
2
Md dx
EIθ =
The quantity M dxEI
corresponds to an infinitesimal area of
the MEI
diagram. According to the above equation the area is
equal to the arrange in angle between two adjacent point m1 and m2 . Integrating the above equation between any two points A & B gives.

Solid Mechanics
This states that the arrange in angle measured in radius between the two tangents at any two points A and B on the
elastic curve is equal to the area of MEI
diagram between A &
B , If Aθ is known then
B A BAθ θ θ= + ∆
In performing above integration, areas corresponding to the M+ are taken + ve, area corresponding to the – ve M are
taken –ve
If B
A
M dxEI� is +ve- tangent B rotates c.c.w from A or Bθ is
algebraically larger than A.
If – ve – tangent B rotates c.w from A.
Second moment-area theorem
This is related to the deflection curve between A and B.
Solid Mechanics
We see that dt is a small contribution to BAt . Since the angles between the tangents and x-axis are very small we can take
The expression Mx dxEI
=1 first moment of infinitesimal area
M dxEI
w.r.t. a vertical line through B.
Integrating between the point A & B

if M is -ve φ = -ve
x and x1 are always taken +ve quantities.
∴Sign of tangential deviation depends on sign of M.

Solid Mechanics
A positive value of tangential deviation- point B is above A and vice versa – ve value means point B is below the point A.
In applying the moment area method a carefully prepared sketch of the elastic curve is always necessary.

In this way one
can obtain equation

(c) To simplify the calculations some care in selecting the tangent at a support must be considered.
In this approach to find
CAt we need to consider
unhatched region which
is more difficult.
(d) The deflection at C can also be calculated as follows.

∴C is at the center of the beam. However, this is also move complicated approach compared to first, as to find CAt we again need to consider unhatched region.
