The Efficient Engineer. Understanding Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams. Posted: January 6, 2025 | Last updated: January 6, 2025. This video is an introduction to shear force and bending ...

In most shafts, bending is the primary source of deflection. However, for short shafts where length is less than 10 times the maximum diameter, deflection due to shear can become significant.

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 ...
