Shear and Bending Moment diagrams


Shear and Bending Moment diagrams


Bending Moment -

It is reaction produce in a element when an external force or moment is applied to the element which causes elements to bends.

Shear Force - 

force acting parallel to the cross section of elements or acting along the plane is      called a shear force or shearing force.

Below is the Link provided for Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagram Calculation of a Beam:-

Below I am showing how to calculate shear force and bending moment diagram. you can find many link for calculating bending moment diagram for different loading and support. example i          have show  below for one condition.

Be care full about units of input data to get the correct result.

Finite Element Analysis of Composite Sandwich Panel Under Static Load condition

Definition of composite material terminology:-


composite materials:

A Composite material is a material made from two or more constituent materials with different physical or chemical properties .when it is combined it produces a material with characteristics different from the individual components.
composite material example


Orthotropic martial:-

Orthotropic materials have material properties that differ along three mutually-orthogonal twofold axes of rotational symmetry and their properties change when measured from different directions.


Anisotropy:-

 is the property of material which depends on direction, which implies different properties in different directions, opposite to that of  isotropy. It can be defined as a difference, when measured along different axes, in a material's physical or mechanical properties.
