Stress distribution on the shaft cross-section For the solid cross-section shaft with material homogeneity on the cross-section, the both the shear strain and shear stress vary linearly with radial ...

(Think a deck of playing cards.) Under the action of a transverse load we see below how the beam deflects in the absence of shear stiffness. Focus, in particular, on the deflection at the right end of ...

In this video we explore bending and shear stresses in beams. A bending moment is the resultant of bending stresses, which are normal stresses acting perpendicular to the beam cross-section. We can ...
