Bending of Beams

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Engineering Mechanics 2

Abstract

Objectives: In this chapter the bending of beams is investigated. We will derive the equations which enable us to determine the stresses and the deformations during bending. The theory also makes it possible to analyse statically indeterminate systems. The students will learn how to apply the equations to specific problems.
