Special Case àThree-force Bodies If a bodY in equilibrium has F forces at three and onlY C C three locaons and no moments, then the forces B FB are either concurrent or A parallel. UsuallY, You can use the trigonometric or FA graphical techniques of Chapter 2. Trusses The truss model requires that all members be two-force members. This further requires the assumptions that: • the connections between the members are frictionless pins. • all forces and reactions are applied at connection points. As a result, the forces in prismatic members are along the members. Work truss problems efficiently. First look at the physics of the problem to see: • if you can solve for the forces in any members by inspection. • if you need to find the reactions. • if there is symmetry in loading and geometry that can be used. If the problem is not solved directly from the physics, then, • use the method of joints to solve for the unknowns if they are near a known force that can be used in the solution. • use the method of sections to solve for the unknowns if they are not near a known force that can be used in the solution.

  • Twisting Couple on a Cylinder Or Wire
    Course: US01CPHY01 UNIT – 2 ELASTICITY – II Introduction: We discussed fundamental concept of properties of matter in first unit. This concept will be more use full for calculating various properties of mechanics of solid material. In this unit, we shall study the detail theory and its related experimental methods for determination of elastic constants and other related properties. Twisting couple on a cylinder or wire: Consider a cylindrical rod of length l radius r and coefficient of rigidity . Its upper end is fixed and a couple is applied in a plane perpendicular to its length at lower end as shown in fig.(a) Consider a cylinder is consisting a large number of co-axial hollow cylinder. Now, consider a one hollow cylinder of radius x and radial thickness dx as shown in fig.(b). Let is the twisting angle. The displacement is greatest at the rim and decreases as the center is approached where it becomes zero. As shown in fig.(a), Let AB be the line parallel to the axis OO’ before twist produced and on twisted B shifts to B’, then line AB become AB’. Before twisting if hollow cylinder cut along AB and flatted out, it will form the rectangular ABCD as shown in fig.(c). But if it will be cut after twisting it takes the shape of a parallelogram AB’C’D.

  • Total Angular Momentum
    Total Angular momentum Dipanjan Mazumdar Sept 2019 1 Motivation So far, somewhat deliberately, in our prior examples we have worked exclusively with the spin angular momentum and ignored the orbital component. This is acceptable for L = 0 systems such as filled shell atoms, but properties of partially filled atoms will depend both on the orbital and the spin part of the angular momentum. Also, when we include relativistic corrections to atomic Hamiltonian, both spin and orbital angular momentum enter directly through terms like L:~ S~ called the spin-orbit coupling. So instead of focusing only on the spin or orbital angular momentum, we have to develop an understanding as to how they couple together. One of the ways is through the total angular momentum defined as J~ = L~ + S~ (1) We will see that this will be very useful in many cases such as the real hydrogen atom where the eigenstates after including the fine structure effects such as spin-orbit interaction are eigenstates of the total angular momentum operator. 2 Vector model of angular momentum Let us first develop an intuitive understanding of the total angular momentum through the vector model which is a semi-classical approach to \add" angular momenta using vector algebra. We shall first ask, knowing L~ and S~, what are the maxmimum and minimum values of J^. This is simple to answer us- ing the vector model since vectors can be added or subtracted. Therefore, the extreme values are L~ + S~ and L~ − S~ as seen in figure 1.1 Therefore, the total angular momentum will take up values between l+s Figure 1: Maximum and minimum values of angular and jl − sj.

  • Fundamental Governing Equations of Motion in Consistent Continuum Mechanics
    Fundamental governing equations of motion in consistent continuum mechanics Ali R. Hadjesfandiari, Gary F. Dargush Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, Buffalo, NY 14260 USA [email protected], [email protected] October 1, 2018 Abstract We investigate the consistency of the fundamental governing equations of motion in continuum mechanics. In the first step, we examine the governing equations for a system of particles, which can be considered as the discrete analog of the continuum. Based on Newton’s third law of action and reaction, there are two vectorial governing equations of motion for a system of particles, the force and moment equations. As is well known, these equations provide the governing equations of motion for infinitesimal elements of matter at each point, consisting of three force equations for translation, and three moment equations for rotation. We also examine the character of other first and second moment equations, which result in non-physical governing equations violating Newton’s third law of action and reaction. Finally, we derive the consistent governing equations of motion in continuum mechanics within the framework of couple stress theory. For completeness, the original couple stress theory and its evolution toward consistent couple stress theory are presented in true tensorial forms. Keywords: Governing equations of motion, Higher moment equations, Couple stress theory, Third order tensors, Newton’s third law of action and reaction 1 1. Introduction The governing equations of motion in continuum mechanics are based on the governing equations for systems of particles, in which the effect of internal forces are cancelled based on Newton’s third law of action and reaction.

  • Learning the Virtual Work Method in Statics: What Is a Compatible Virtual Displacement?
    2006-823: LEARNING THE VIRTUAL WORK METHOD IN STATICS: WHAT IS A COMPATIBLE VIRTUAL DISPLACEMENT? Ing-Chang Jong, University of Arkansas Ing-Chang Jong serves as Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Arkansas. He received a BSCE in 1961 from the National Taiwan University, an MSCE in 1963 from South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, and a Ph.D. in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics in 1965 from Northwestern University. He was Chair of the Mechanics Division, ASEE, in 1996-97. His research interests are in mechanics and engineering education. Page 11.878.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2006 Learning the Virtual Work Method in Statics: What Is a Compatible Virtual Displacement? Abstract Statics is a course aimed at developing in students the concepts and skills related to the analysis and prediction of conditions of bodies under the action of balanced force systems. At a number of institutions, learning the traditional approach using force and moment equilibrium equations is followed by learning the energy approach using the virtual work method to enrich the learning of students. The transition from the traditional approach to the energy approach requires learning several related key concepts and strategy. Among others, compatible virtual displacement is a key concept, which is compatible with what is required in the virtual work method but is not commonly recognized and emphasized. The virtual work method is initially not easy to learn for many people. It is surmountable when one understands the following: (a) the proper steps and strategy in the method, (b) the displacement center, (c) some basic geometry, and (d ) the radian measure formula to compute virtual displacements.

  • 2D Rigid Body Dynamics: Work and Energy
    J. Peraire, S. Widnall 16.07 Dynamics Fall 2008 Version 1.0 Lecture L22 - 2D Rigid Body Dynamics: Work and Energy In this lecture, we will revisit the principle of work and energy introduced in lecture L11-13 for particle dynamics, and extend it to 2D rigid body dynamics. Kinetic Energy for a 2D Rigid Body We start by recalling the kinetic energy expression for a system of particles derived in lecture L11, n 1 2 X 1 02 T = mvG + mir_i ; 2 2 i=1 0 where n is the total number of particles, mi denotes the mass of particle i, and ri is the position vector of Pn particle i with respect to the center of mass, G. Also, m = i=1 mi is the total mass of the system, and vG is the velocity of the center of mass. The above expression states that the kinetic energy of a system of particles equals the kinetic energy of a particle of mass m moving with the velocity of the center of mass, plus the kinetic energy due to the motion of the particles relative to the center of mass, G. For a 2D rigid body, the velocity of all particles relative to the center of mass is a pure rotation. Thus, we can write 0 0 r_ i = ! × ri: Therefore, we have n n n X 1 02 X 1 0 0 X 1 02 2 mir_i = mi(! × ri) · (! × ri) = miri ! ; 2 2 2 i=1 i=1 i=1 0 Pn 02 where we have used the fact that ! and ri are perpendicular.

  • An Essay on Lagrangian and Eulerian Kinematics of Fluid Flow
    Lagrangian and Eulerian Representations of Fluid Flow: Kinematics and the Equations of Motion James F. Price Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, MA, 02543 [email protected], http://www.whoi.edu/science/PO/people/jprice June 7, 2006 Summary: This essay introduces the two methods that are widely used to observe and analyze fluid flows, either by observing the trajectories of specific fluid parcels, which yields what is commonly termed a Lagrangian representation, or by observing the fluid velocity at fixed positions, which yields an Eulerian representation. Lagrangian methods are often the most efficient way to sample a fluid flow and the physical conservation laws are inherently Lagrangian since they apply to moving fluid volumes rather than to the fluid that happens to be present at some fixed point in space. Nevertheless, the Lagrangian equations of motion applied to a three-dimensional continuum are quite difficult in most applications, and thus almost all of the theory (forward calculation) in fluid mechanics is developed within the Eulerian system. Lagrangian and Eulerian concepts and methods are thus used side-by-side in many investigations, and the premise of this essay is that an understanding of both systems and the relationships between them can help form the framework for a study of fluid mechanics. 1 The transformation of the conservation laws from a Lagrangian to an Eulerian system can be envisaged in three steps. (1) The first is dubbed the Fundamental Principle of Kinematics; the fluid velocity at a given time and fixed position (the Eulerian velocity) is equal to the velocity of the fluid parcel (the Lagrangian velocity) that is present at that position at that instant.

    EXPERT CONTENT Body Mechanics by Joseph E. Muscolino | illustrations by Giovanni Rimasti | photographs by Yanik Chauvin A force couple is“ defined as two forces, equal in magnitude, that are opposite in linear direction but act together to create the same rotational motion (torque). Working the Hands in Concert – The Force Couple Technique When working on the client’s body, the skilled therapist learns how to work both hands in concert for efficient and www.amtamassage.org/mtj graceful manual therapy. One technique that the therapist can use to coordinate their hands is to make use of what is known as a force couple. A force couple is defined as two forces, equal in magnitude, that are opposite in linear direction but act together to create the same rotational motion (torque). This might seem like a fancy definition, but a force couple is actually quite simple. The easiest way to visualize a force couple is to think of a revolving door. If one person is entering a revolving door from inside the building and a second person is entering from outside the building, the two people are pressing on the revolving door in opposite linear directions, one outward and the other inward, yet they are both pushing with the same rotational force to spin the revolving door in the same direc- 15 tion (Figure 1). Before practicing any new modalities or techniques, check with your state’s massage therapy regulatory authority to ensure that they are within the state’s defined scope of practice for massage therapy.

  • SEP Acceleration at Realistic Cmes: Two Sites of Acceleration?
    29th International Cosmic Ray Conference Pune (2005) 1, 125–128 SEP Acceleration at Realistic CMEs: Two Sites of Acceleration? ¡ ¡ J. Kota´ , W.B. Manchester and T.I. Gombosi (a) The University of Arizona, Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, Tucson AZ 85721-0092, USA (b) The University of Michigan, Center for Space Environment Modeling, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2143 , USA Presenter: J. Kota´ ([email protected]), usa-kota-J-abs3-sh13-poster We combine the SEP acceleration and transport code of Arizona with realistic CME simulations from Michi- gan. We suggest that, in addition to the shock, there is another important site of acceleration: significant particle acceleration can occur in the sheath behind the shock, where magnetic field lines are compressed. Our SEP code considers field-aligned motion of ions, undergoing pitch-angle scattering. We cast the Fokker-Planck equation into a new form, which is suitable to follow the evolution of the magnetic field as the CME expands. Illustrative simulation results are presented. 1. Introduction Large gradual solar energetic particle (SEP) events are thought to be accelerated by CME driven shocks, but the precise mechanism of acceleration is not yet fully understood. In shock acceleration, the shock geometry plays a central role. Many of the current theoretical models presume a parallel shock as the site of acceleration. On the other hand, Jokipii [1] pointed out that acceleration can be significantly faster at quasi-perpendicular shocks. Recently Giacalone [2] proposed that efficient SEP acceleration may occur at perpendicular rather than parallel shocks. Lee and Tylka [3] emphasize that the the shock is likely to change from an initially perpendicular shock to a more parallel one later as the CME expands.
