ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-1: Internal Forces in Beams Introduction: Beam:Slender structural member subjected to lateral loading In contrast to: bar: Subjected to axial loading shaft: Internal forces in a beam: Subjected to torque Three types of internal forces in a beam: N ---- Normal force (to prevent relative axial motion at C of two parts) V ---- Shear force (to prevent relative lateral sliding at C of two parts) M ---- Bending moment (to prevent relative rotation at C of two parts) Cross-section
ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-2: Internal Forces in Beams Introduction: Sign conventions: Conventional “+” direction Nature of Internal forces: Distributed shear stresses Distributed normal stresses Internal forces are in fact normal and shear stresses distributed over a cross-section area. N, V, and M are simplified models as resultant force in the axial direction, the resultant force in the lateral direction, and the resultant moment about the so-called neutral axism respectively.
ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-3: Internal Forces in Beams Example 1: Find the internal forces of a beam, subjected to a point load, at a specified location Find internal forces on cross-sections at C and D Support Reactions: Internal forces at C: Note: these are reactions that do not exactly the conventional signs of internal forces
ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-4: Internal Forces in Beams Example 1 (con’d): Find internal forces on cross-sections at C and D Note: the problem can also been equivalently solved by equilibriun of the BD part The same results but more convenient Internal forces at D: Note: The normal force is zero in general for the case where a load acts perpendicularly to the axis of a straight beam
ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-5: Internal Forces in Beams Example 2: Find internal forces on cross-sections at C and D Distributed load Support Reactions: Internal forces at C:
ES2501: Statics/Unit 20-6: Internal Forces in Beams Example 2 (con’d): Find internal forces on cross-sections at C and D Distributed load Statically equivalent load Internal forces at D: Or, equivalently by equilibrium of BD: The same results
