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 ...

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 ...
If you use STAAD (Structural Analysis and Design) software to model and analyze beams and columns, you might wonder how to interpret the bending moment and shear force diagrams that the program ...
CONCLUSION: Shear stresses play an important role in the Euler-Bernoulli theory for the bending of beams when shear force resultants exist at a given cross section.
