The integrations needed to determine beam deflections require the enforcement of the appropriate displacement and rotation boundary conditions (BCs). It is important that we be able to recognize these ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...

Maximum wire stress in helically wound pressurized elastomeric spiraled hose subjected to large flexural bending is mathematically analyzed. Solution approach is to superimpose the state of stress of ...
