The deflection of a cantilever beam is essentially a three dimensional problem. An elastic stretching in one direction is accompanied by a compression in perpendicular directions. In this project ,static and Modal analysis is a process to determine the stress ,strain and deformation. vibration characteristics (natural frequencies and mode shapes) of a structure or a machine component while it is being designed. It has become a major alternative to provide a helpful contribution in understanding control of many vibration phenomena which encountered in practice. In this work we compared the stress and natural frequency for different material having same I, C and T cross- sectional beam. The cantilever beam is designed and analyzed in ANSYS. The cantilever beam which is fixed at one end is vibrated to obtain the natural frequency, mode shapes and deflection with different sections and materials. INTRODUCTION BEAM A beam is a structural element that is capable of withstanding load primarily by resisting against bending. The bending force induced into the material of the beam as a result of the external loads, own weight, span and external reactions to these loads is called a bending moment.

  • The Effect of Yield Strength on Inelastic Buckling of Reinforcing
    Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering Vol. 14, No. 2 (2010) 247{255 ⃝c Technical University of Lodz The Effect of Yield Strength on Inelastic Buckling of Reinforcing Bars Jacek Korentz Institute of Civil Engineering University of Zielona G´ora Licealna 9, 65{417 Zielona G´ora, Poland Received (13 June 2010) Revised (15 July 2010) Accepted (25 July 2010) The paper presents the results of numerical analyses of inelastic buckling of reinforcing bars of various geometrical parameters, made of steel of various values of yield strength. The results of the calculations demonstrate that the yield strength of the steel the bars are made of influences considerably the equilibrium path of the compressed bars within the range of postyielding deformations Comparative diagrams of structural behaviour (loading paths) of thin{walled sec- tions under investigation for different strain rates are presented. Some conclusions and remarks concerning the strain rate influence are derived. Keywords: Reinforcing bars, inelastic buckling, yield strength, tensil strength 1. Introduction The impact of some exceptional loads, e.g. seismic loads, on a structure may re- sult in the occurrence of post{critical states. Therefore the National Standards regulations for designing reinforced structures on seismically active areas e.g. EC8 [15] require the ductility of a structure to be examined on a cross{sectional level, and additionally, the structures should demonstrate a suitable level of global duc- tility. The results of the examinations of members of reinforced concrete structures show that inelastic buckling of longitudinal reinforcement bars occurs in the state of post{critical deformations, [1, 2, 4, 7], and in some cases it occurs yet within the range of elastic deformations [8].

  • Design for Cyclic Loading, Soderberg, Goodman and Modified Goodman's Equation
    Design for Cyclic Loading 1. Completely reversing cyclic stress and endurance strength A purely reversing or cyclic stress means when the stress alternates between equal positive and Pure cyclic stress negative peak stresses sinusoidally during each 300 cycle of operation, as shown. In this diagram the stress varies with time between +250 MPa 200 to -250MPa. This kind of cyclic stress is 100 developed in many rotating machine parts that 0 are carrying a constant bending load. -100 When a part is subjected cyclic stress, Stress (MPa) also known as range or reversing stress (Sr), it -200 has been observed that the failure of the part -300 occurs after a number of stress reversals (N) time even it the magnitude of Sr is below the material’s yield strength. Generally, higher the value of Sr, lesser N is needed for failure. No. of Cyclic stress stress (Sr) reversals for failure (N) psi 1000 81000 2000 75465 4000 70307 8000 65501 16000 61024 32000 56853 64000 52967 96000 50818 144000 48757 216000 46779 324000 44881 486000 43060 729000 41313 1000000 40000 For a typical material, the table and the graph above (S-N curve) show the relationship between the magnitudes Sr and the number of stress reversals (N) before failure of the part. For example, if the part were subjected to Sr= 81,000 psi, then it would fail after N=1000 stress reversals. If the same part is subjected to Sr = 61,024 psi, then it can survive up to N=16,000 reversals, and so on. Sengupta MET 301: Design for Cyclic Loading 1 of 7 It has been observed that for most of engineering materials, the rate of reduction of Sr becomes negligible near the vicinity of N = 106 and the slope of the S-N curve becomes more or less horizontal.

  • Hydraulics Manual Glossary G - 3
    Glossary G - 1 GLOSSARY OF HIGHWAY-RELATED DRAINAGE TERMS (Reprinted from the 1999 edition of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Model Drainage Manual) G.1 Introduction This Glossary is divided into three parts: · Introduction, · Glossary, and · References. It is not intended that all the terms in this Glossary be rigorously accurate or complete. Realistically, this is impossible. Depending on the circumstance, a particular term may have several meanings; this can never change. The primary purpose of this Glossary is to define the terms found in the Highway Drainage Guidelines and Model Drainage Manual in a manner that makes them easier to interpret and understand. A lesser purpose is to provide a compendium of terms that will be useful for both the novice as well as the more experienced hydraulics engineer. This Glossary may also help those who are unfamiliar with highway drainage design to become more understanding and appreciative of this complex science as well as facilitate communication between the highway hydraulics engineer and others. Where readily available, the source of a definition has been referenced. For clarity or format purposes, cited definitions may have some additional verbiage contained in double brackets [ ]. Conversely, three “dots” (...) are used to indicate where some parts of a cited definition were eliminated. Also, as might be expected, different sources were found to use different hyphenation and terminology practices for the same words. Insignificant changes in this regard were made to some cited references and elsewhere to gain uniformity for the terms contained in this Glossary: as an example, “groundwater” vice “ground-water” or “ground water,” and “cross section area” vice “cross-sectional area.” Cited definitions were taken primarily from two sources: W.B.

  • 28 Combined Bending and Compression
    CE 479 Wood Design Lecture Notes JAR Combined Bending and Compression (Sec 7.12 Text and NDS 01 Sec. 3.9) These members are referred to as beam-columns. The basic straight line interaction for bending and axial tension (Eq. 3.9-1, NDS 01) has been modified as shown in Section 3.9.2 of the NDS 01, Eq. (3.9-3) for the case of bending about one or both principal axis and axial compression. This equation is intended to represent the following conditions: • Column Buckling • Lateral Torsional Buckling of Beams • Beam-Column Interaction (P, M). The uniaxial compressive stress, fc = P/A, where A represents the net sectional area as per 3.6.3 28 CE 479 Wood Design Lecture Notes JAR The combination of bending and axial compression is more critical due to the P-∆ effect. The bending produced by the transverse loading causes a deflection ∆. The application of the axial load, P, then results in an additional moment P*∆; this is also know as second order effect because the added bending stress is not calculated directly. Instead, the common practice in design specifications is to include it by increasing (amplification factor) the computed bending stress in the interaction equation. 29 CE 479 Wood Design Lecture Notes JAR The most common case involves axial compression combined with bending about the strong axis of the cross section. In this case, Equation (3.9-3) reduces to: 2 ⎡ fc ⎤ fb1 ⎢ ⎥ + ≤ 1.0 F' ⎡ ⎛ f ⎞⎤ ⎣ c ⎦ F' 1 − ⎜ c ⎟ b1 ⎢ ⎜ F ⎟⎥ ⎣ ⎝ cE 1 ⎠⎦ and, the amplification factor is a number greater than 1.0 given by the expression: ⎛ ⎞ ⎜ ⎟ ⎜ 1 ⎟ Amplification factor for f = b1 ⎜ ⎛ f ⎞⎟ ⎜1 − ⎜ c ⎟⎟ ⎜ ⎜ F ⎟⎟ ⎝ ⎝ E 1 ⎠⎠ 30 CE 479 Wood Design Lecture Notes JAR Example of Application: The general interaction formula reduces to: 2 ⎡ fc ⎤ fb1 ⎢ ⎥ + ≤ 1.0 F' ⎡ ⎛ f ⎞⎤ ⎣ c ⎦ F' 1 − ⎜ c ⎟ b1 ⎢ ⎜ F ⎟⎥ ⎣ ⎝ cE 1 ⎠⎦ where: fc = actual compressive stress = P/A F’c = allowable compressive stress parallel to the grain = Fc*CD*CM*Ct*CF*CP*Ci Note: that F’c includes the CP adjustment factor for stability (Sec.
