In physics, there are two great pillars of thought that don't quite fit together. The Standard Model of particle physics ...

Understanding Stresses in Beams
In this video we explore bending and shear stresses in beams. A bending moment is the resultant of bending stresses, which ...
By incorporating shear stress and rotational inertia, it better captures the dynamics of short beams, laminated beams, and high-frequency excitations where wavelengths are comparable to beam thickness ...
Several types of cracks occur in concrete beams due to shear stress called as shear crack, reinforcement corrosion, insufficient rebar cover, bending stress and compression failure.
A diaphragm acts like a deep beam or girder, where the panels act as a “web,” resisting shear, while the diaphragm edge members perform the function of “flanges,” resisting bending stresses. These ...
Abstract A novel Normal and Shear Deformation Theory (NSDT) for analysis of laminated composite and sandwich beams, taking into account shear deformation as well as normal deformation, is developed.
Existing methods for predicting the shear stresses led to calculation results of great differences. In this paper, the shear stress was primarily evaluated by incorporating typical bond-slip (δ - τ) ...
