1 CHAPTER 1 BEAMS IN BENDING This book deals with the extension, bending, and torsion of bars, especially thinwalled members. Although computational approaches for the analysis and design of bars are emphasied, traditional analytical solutions are included. We begin with a study of the bending of beams, starting with a brief review of some of the fundamental concepts of the theory of linear elasticity. The theory of beams in bending is then treated from a strength-of-materials point of view. Both topics are treated more thoroughly in Pilkey and Wunderlich (1994). Atanackovic and Guran (000), Boresi and Chong (1987), Gould (1994), Love (1944), and Sokolnikoff (1956) contain a full account of the theory of elasticity. References such as these should be consulted for the derivation of theory-of-elasticity relationships that are not derived in this chapter. Gere (001), Oden and Ripperger (1981), Rivello (1969), and Uugural and Fenster (1981) may be consulted for a detailed development of beam theory. 1.1 REVIEW OF LINEAR ELASTICITY The equations of elasticity for a three-dimensional body contain 15 unknown functions: six stresses, six strains, and three displacements. These functions satisfy three equations of equilibrium, six strain displacement relations, and six stress strain equations Kinematical Strain Displacement Equations The displacement vector u at a point in a solid has the three components u x (x, y, ), u y (x, y, ), u (x, y, ) which are mutually orthogonal in a Cartesian coordinate system and are taken to be positive in the direction of the positive coordinate axes.

The shear strains are symmetric (i.e., γ ij = γ ji ). In matrix notation ɛ x ɛ y = ɛ γ xy = [ ] T [ ] T ɛ x ɛ y ɛ γ xy γ x γ y = ɛx ɛ y ɛ ɛ xy ɛ x ɛ y γ x γ y (1.) As indicated, γ ik = ɛ ik,whereγ ik is sometimes called the engineering shear strain and ɛ ik the theory of elasticity shear strain. The linearied strain displacement relations, which form the Cauchy strain tensor,are ɛ x = u x x γ xy = u y x + u x y ɛ y = u y y γ x = u x + u x ɛ = u γ y = u y + u y (1.3) In matrix form Eq. (1.3) can be written as ɛ x x 0 0 ɛ y 0 y 0 ɛ γ xy = 0 0 u x y x 0 u y (1.4) γ x 0 x u γ y 0 y or = D u with the differential operator matrix x y 0 D = 0 0 y x 0 0 x 0 y (1.5)

3 REVIEW OF LINEAR ELASTICITY 3 Six strain components are required to characterie the state of strain at a point and are derived from the three displacement functions u x, u y, u. The displacement field must be continuous and single valued, because it is being assumed that the body remains continuous after deformations have taken place. The six strain displacement equations will not possess a single-valued solution for the three displacements if the strains are arbitrarily prescribed. Thus, the calculated displacements could possess tears, cracks, gaps, or overlaps, none of which should occur in practice. It appears as though the strains should not be independent and that they should be required to satisfy special conditions. To find relationships between the strains, differentiate the expression for the shear strain γ xy with respect to x and y, γ xy x y = x y u x y + x y u y x (1.6) According to the calculus, a single-valued continuous function f satisfies the condition f x y = f y x (1.7) With the assistance of Eq. (1.7), Eq. (1.6) may be rewritten, using the strain displacement relations, as γ xy x y = ɛ x y + ɛ y x (1.8) showing that the three strain components γ xy, ɛ x, ɛ y are not independent functions. Similar considerations that eliminate the displacements from the strain displacement relations lead to five additional relations among the strains. These six relationships, ɛ x y = ( γ y x x ɛ y x = y ɛ x y = γ xy x y = ɛ x y γ x x = ɛ x ( γ x y + γ x y + γ xy ( γ xy + γ y x + ɛ y x + ɛ x γ y y = ɛ y + ɛ y + γ ) xy + γ ) y x + γ x y ) (1.9)

4 4 BEAMS IN BENDING are known as the strain compatibility conditions or integrability conditions. Although there are six conditions, only three are independent Material Law The kinematical conditions of Section are independent of the material of which the body is made. The material is introduced to the formulation through a material law, which is a relationship between the stresses and strains. Othernamesare the constitutive relations or the stress strain equations. Figure 1.1 shows the stress components that define the state of stress in a threedimensional continuum. The quantities σ x,σ y, and σ designate stress components normal to a coordinate plane and τ xy, τ x, τ y, τ yx, τ x,andτ y are the shear stress components. In the case of a normal stress, the single subscript indicates that the stress acts on a plane normal to the axis in the subscript direction. For the shear stresses, the first letter of the double subscript denotes that the plane on which the stress acts is normal to the axis in the subscript direction. The second subscript letter designates the coordinate direction in which the stress acts. As a result of the need to satisfy an equilibrium condition of moments, the shear stress components must be symmetric that is, τ xy = τ yx τ x = τ x τ y = τ y (1.10) Then the state of stress at a point is characteried by six components. In matrix form, y σ y τ yx τ y τ xy τ y τ x τ x σ x x σ Figure 1.1 Notation for the components of the Cartesian stress tensor.

A face with its normal in the negative coordinate direction is defined as a negative face. Stress (strain) components on a positive face are positive when acting along a positive coordinate direction. The components shown in Fig. 1.1 are positive. Components on a negative face acting in the negative coordinate direction are defined to be positive. An isotropic material has the same material properties in all directions. If the properties differ in various directions, such as with wood, the material is said to be anisotropic. A material is homogeneous if it has the same properties at every point. Wood is an example of a homogeneous material that can be anisotropic. A body formed of steel and aluminum portions is an example of a material that is inhomogeneous, but each portion is isotropic. The stress strain equations for linearly elastic isotropic materials are ɛ x = σ x E ν E (σ y + σ ) ɛ y = σ y E ν E (σ x + σ ) ɛ = σ E ν E (σ x + σ y ) γ xy = τ xy G γ x = τ x G γ y = τ y G (1.1) where E is the elastic or Young s modulus, ν is Poisson s ratio, andg is the shear modulus. Only two of these three material properties are independent. The shear modulus is given in terms of E and ν as G = E (1 + ν) (1.13)

Under this loading condition, the material undergoes extension in the axial direction x and contraction in the transverse directions y and. This shows that the material constants ν and E are both positive: E > 0 ν>0 (1.0) In hydrostatic compression p, the material is subjected to identical compressive stresses in all three coordinate directions: σ x = σ y = σ = p p > 0 (1.1) while all shear stresses are ero. The dilatation under this loading condition is e = 3p ν) = 3p(1 (1.) 3λ + G E Since the volume change in hydrostatic compression is negative, this expression for e implies that Poisson s ratio must be less than 1 : ν< 1 (1.3) and the following properties of the elastic constants are established: E > 0 G > 0 λ>0 0 <ν< 1 (1.4) Materials for which ν 0andν 1 are very compressible or very incompressible, respectively. Cork is an example of a very compressible material, whereas rubber is very incompressible Equations of Equilibrium Equilibrium at a point in a solid is characteried by a relationship between internal (volume or body) forces p Vx, p Vy, p V, such as those generated by gravity or acceleration, and differential equations involving stress. Prescribed forces are designated with a bar placed over a letter. These equilibrium or static relations appear as σ x x + τ xy y + τ x + p Vx = 0

These relationships are derived in books dealing with the theory of elasticity and, also, in many basic strength-of-materials textbooks Surface Forces and Boundary Conditions The forces applied to a surface (i.e., the boundary) of a body must be in equilibrium with the stress components on the surface. Let S p denote the part of the surface of the body on which forces are prescribed, and let displacements be specified on the remaining surface S u. The surface conditions on S p are p x = σ x n x + τ xy n y + τ x n p y = τ xy n x + σ y n y + τ y n (1.7) p = τ x n x + τ y n y + σ n where n x, n y, n are the components of the unit vector n normal to the surface and p x, p y, p are the surface forces per unit area. In matrix form, σ x σ y p x n x 0 0. n y n 0 p y = σ p 0 n y 0. n x 0 n 0 0 n. τ xy (1.8) 0 nx n y τ x τ y p = N T

9 REVIEW OF LINEAR ELASTICITY 9 Note that N T is similar in form to D T of Eq. (1.6) in that the components of N T correspond to the derivatives of D T. The relations of Eq. (1.7) are referred to as Cauchy sformula. Surface forces (per unit area) p applied externally are called prescribed surface tractions p. Equilibrium demands that the resultant stress be equal to the applied surface tractions p on S p : p = p on S p (1.9) These are the static (force, stress, or mechanical) boundary conditions. Continuity requires that on the surface S u, the displacements u be equal to the specified displacements u: u = u on S u (1.30) These are the displacement (kinematic) boundary conditions. Unit Vectors on a Boundary Curve It is helpful to identify several useful relationships between vectors on a boundary curve. Consider a boundary curve lying in the y plane as shown in Fig. 1.a. The vector n is the unit outward normal n = n y j + n k and t is the unit tangent vector t = t y j + t k,wherej and k are unit vectors along the y and axes. The quantity s, the coordinate along the arc of the boundary, is chosen to increase in the counterclockwise sense. As shown in Fig. 1.a, the unit tangent vector t is directed along increasing s.sincenand t are unit vectors, n y + n = 1andt y + t = 1. The components of n are its direction cosines, that is, from Fig. 1.b, n y = cos θ y and n = cos θ (1.31) since, for example, cos θ y = n y / n y + n = n y. From Fig. 1.c it can be observed that As a consequence, cos ϕ = n y sin ϕ = n (1.3) sin ϕ = t y cos ϕ = t n y = t n = t y (1.33) and the unit outward normal is defined in terms of the components t y and t of the unit tangent as n = t j t y k = t i (1.34)

Geometry of the unit normal and tangential vectors. From Fig. 1.d it is apparent that sin ϕ = dy ds and cos ϕ = d ds (1.35) Thus, n y = t = d ds The vector r to any point on the boundary is n = t y = dy ds (1.36) r = yj + k Then dr = dy j + d k = dr ( dy ds ds = ds j + d ) ds k ds = t ds (1.37)

11 REVIEW OF LINEAR ELASTICITY Other Forms of the Governing Differential Equations The general problem of the theory of elasticity is to calculate the stresses, strains, and displacements throughout a solid. The kinematic equations = Du (Eq. 1.4) are written in terms of six strains and three displacements, while the static equations D T + p V = 0 (Eq. 1.6) are expressed as functions of the six stress components. The constitutive equations = E (Eq. 1.18) are relations between the stresses and strains. The boundary conditions of Eqs. (1.9) and (1.30) need to be satisfied by the solution for the 15 unknowns. In terms of achieving solutions, it is useful to derive alternative forms of the governing equations. The elasticity problem can be formulated in terms of the displacement functions u x, u y, u. The stress strain equations allow the equilibrium equations to be written in terms of the strains. When the strains are replaced in the resulting equations by the expressions given by the strain displacement relations, the equilibrium equations become a set of partial differential equations for the displacements. Thus, substitute = Du into = E to give the stress displacement relations = EDu. The conditions of equilibrium become or, in scalar form, where is the Laplacian operator D T + p V = D T EDu + p V = 0 (1.38) (λ + G) e x + G u x + p Vx = 0 The dilatation e is a function of displacements (λ + G) e y + G u y + p Vy = 0 (1.39) (λ + G) e + G u + p V = 0 = x + y + (1.40) e = u x x + u y y + u = u (1.41) where u is the displacement vector, whose components along the x, y, axes are u x, u y, u,and is the gradient operator. The displacement vector is expressed as u = u x i + u y j + u k,wherei, j, k are the unit base vectors along the coordinates x, y,, respectively. The gradient operator appears as = i x + j y + k (1.4)

12 1 BEAMS IN BENDING To complete the displacement formulation, the surface conditions on S p must also be written in terms of the displacements. This is done by first writing these surface conditions of Eq. (1.7) in terms of strains using the material laws, and then expressing the strains in terms of the displacements, using the strain displacement relations. The resulting conditions are λen x + Gn u x + Gn u x = p x λen y + Gn u y + Gn u y = p y (1.43) λen + Gn u + Gn u = p where n = n x i + n y j + n k. If boundary conditions exist for both S p and S u,the boundary value problem is called mixed. The equations of equilibrium written in terms of the displacements together with boundary conditions on S p and S u constitute the displacement formulation of the elasticity problem. In this formulation, the displacement functions are found first. The strain displacement relations then give the strains, and the material laws give the stresses. 1. BENDING STRESSES IN A BEAM IN PURE BENDING A beam is said to be in pure bending if the force couple equivalent of the stresses over any cross section is a couple M in the plane of the section M = M y j + M k (1.44) y M M y O x Figure 1.3 Beam in pure bending.

13 BENDING STRESSES IN A BEAM IN PURE BENDING 13 M σ x A M y y O x Figure 1.4 Stress resultants on a beam cross section. where j, k are the unit vectors parallel to the y, axes, and the x axis is the beam axis, as shown in Fig In terms of the stress σ x, the bending moments may be calculated as stress resultants by summing the moments about the origin O of the axes (Fig. 1.4) M y = σ x da M = yσ x da (1.45) The point about which the moments are taken is arbitrary because the moment of a couple has the same value about any point. Since in pure bending there is no axial stress resultant, σ x da = 0 (1.46) According to the Bernoulli Euler theory of bending, the cross-sectional planes of the beam remain plane and normal to the beam axis as it deforms. Choose the x axis (i.e. the beam axis) such that it passes through a reference point with coordinates (x, 0, 0). This point is designated by O in Fig The axial displacement u x of a point on the cross section with coordinates (x, y, ) can be expressed in terms of the rotations of the cross section about the y and axes and the axial displacement u(x) of the reference point (Fig. 1.5). Thus u x (x, y, ) = u(x) + θ y (x) yθ (x) (1.47) where θ y, θ are the angles of rotation of the section about the y, axes. Thus, the displacement u x at a point on the cross section has been expressed in terms of the beam axis variables u, θ y,andθ. Note that the quantities u, θ y,andθ do not vary over a particular cross section. The terms θ y and yθ vary linearly. Figure 1.6 shows

The axial strain at the point (x, y, ) is found from the strain displacement equation (Eq. 1.3) where ɛ x = u x x = κ ɛ + κ y κ y (1.48) κ ɛ = du dx κ y = dθ y dx κ = dθ dx y M y θ y O x P θ y Figure 1.6 P' Rotation of a cross section about the y axis.

15 BENDING STRESSES IN A BEAM IN PURE BENDING 15 At a given cross section, κ ɛ, κ y, κ are constants, so that the normal strain distribution over the section is linear in y and. In pure bending, the only nonero stress is assumed to be the normal stress σ x, which is given by the material law for linearly elastic isotropic materials as σ x = Eɛ x,sothat σ x = E(κ ɛ + κ y κ y) (1.49) For a nonhomogeneous beam, the elastic modulus takes on different values over different parts of the section, making E a function of position: E = E(y, ) The stress distribution at a given cross section is then expressed as σ x (y, ) = E(y, )(κ ɛ + κ y κ y) (1.50) The stress distribution is statically equivalent to the couple at the section so that the total axial force calculated as a stress resultant is ero and the moments are equal to the bending moments at the section. Thus, from Eqs. (1.45), (1.46), and (1.50), σ x da = κ ɛ EdA+ κ y E da κ ye da = 0 σ x da = κ ɛ E da+ κ y EdA κ ye da = M y (1.51) yσ x da = κ ɛ ye da+ κ y ye da κ y EdA= M Define geometric properties of the cross section as Q y = da Q = yda I y = da I = y da I y = y da (1.5a) (1.5b) where Q y and Q are first moments of the cross-sectional area and I y, I, and I y are the second moments of a plane area or the area moments of inertia. Place the definitions of Eqs. (1.5) in Eq. (1.51): κ ɛ A + κ y Q y κ Q = 0 κ ɛ Q y + κ y I y κ I y = M y E κ ɛ Q + κ y I y κ I = M E where the elastic modulus E is assumed to be constant for the cross section. (1.53)

(1.53) for the constants κ ɛ, κ y,andκ become simpler if advantage is taken of the arbitrariness of the choice of origin O. Let a new coordinate system with origin C be defined as shown in Fig. 1.7 by a translation of axes. Figure 1.7 shows that the coordinate transformation equation for any point P of the section is r PO = r PC + r CO,or r PC = r PO r CO (1.54a) The components of this vector equation are y = y y C = C (1.54b) where y and are the coordinates of P relative to the y, coordinate axes and y C and C are the coordinates of C relative to the y, coordinate axes. Choose the origin C such that the first moments of area in the coordinate system C y are ero: Q y = da= ( C ) da = 0 (1.55) Q = yda= (y y C ) da = 0 With the definitions of Eq. (1.5a), these conditions yield the familiar geometric centroid of the cross section: y C = Q A C = Q y A (1.56)

17 BENDING STRESSES IN A BEAM IN PURE BENDING 17 Transform Eq. (1.53) to the centroidal coordinate system by assuming that Q y, Q, I y, I,andI y are measured from the centroidal coordinates. Since Q y and Q are equal to ero (Eq. 1.55), Eq. (1.53) reduces to κ ɛ A = 0 κ y I y κ I y = M y E κ y I y κ I = M E where I y, I,andI y are the moments of inertia about the y, centroidal axes. Solve these expressions for κ ɛ, κ y,andκ, and substitute the results into σ x of Eq. (1.49) expressed in terms of centroidal coordinates [i.e., σ x = E(κ ɛ + κ y κ y)]. This leads to an expression for the normal stress: σ x = I y M y + I y M I y I I y y + I M y + I y M I y I Iy (1.57) The neutral axis is defined as the line on the cross section for which the normal stress σ x is ero. This axis is the line of intersection of the neutral surface, which passes through the centroid of the section, and the cross-sectional plane. By equating Eq. (1.57) to ero, we find that the neutral axis is a straight line defined by or If M = 0, Eq. (1.57) reduces to (I y M y + I y M )y + (I M y + I y M ) = 0 y = I M y + I y M I y M y + I y M (1.58) σ x = M y I I y y I y I I y (1.59) The centroidal coordinates can be located using Eq. (1.56). Sometimes it is convenient to calculate the area moment of inertia first about a judiciously selected coordinate system and then transform them to the centroidal coordinate system. The calculation for I, for instance, is I = y da = (y y C ) da = (y yy C + yc ) da = I y C A

18 18 BEAMS IN BENDING From Eq. (1.55), the integral ydain this expression is equal to y C da. Thisis one of Huygens s or Steiner slawsand is referred to as a parallel axis theorem. The complete set of equations is I y = I y C A I = I yc A (1.60) I y = I y y C C A Here I y, I, I y and I y, I, I y are the moments of inertia about the y, and y, (centroidal) axes, respectively.

The neutral axis is defined by Eq. (1.58) as y = I M y I y M y = I I y = 3 4 (7) This line is plotted in Fig. 1.9c. The angle between the y axis and the neutral axis is If the asymmetrical nature of the cross section is ignored, I y would be ero and the normal stress σ x of Eq. (1.57) would be σ x = M y I y (8) The maximum stress occurs at point D with = 4a/3, so that (8) becomes (σ x ) D = PL a t (9) At points A and B, = a/3 and (8) becomes (σ x ) A = (σ x ) B = PL a t (10) Note that these values are not consistent with (4), (5), and (6).

The polar moment of inertia I p with respect to the centroid of the section is the sum of the area moments of inertia about the y and axes: I I p = I y + I (1.63) Modulus-Weighted Properties If the material properties are not homogeneous on the cross section, it is useful to introduce a reference modulus E r and to define a modulus-weighted differential area by Then, Eq.

The modulus-weighted first moments of area are Q y = dã Q = ydã (1.66a) The modulus-weighted area moments of inertia are given by Ĩ y = dã Ĩ = y dã and the modulus-weighted area product of inertia is Ĩ y = y dã (1.66b) (1.66c)

23 BENDING STRESSES IN A BEAM IN PURE BENDING 3 For a homogeneous beam, the elastic modulus E has the same value at any point of the section, and E r is chosen equal to E. The modulus-weighted properties then become purely geometric properties of the cross section of Eq. (1.5). Equation (1.65) is simplified if the relationships are transformed to the centroidal coordinates. For the modulus-weighted case, the components of Eq. (1.54b) are y = y ỹ C = C (1.67) As in the homogeneous case, the origin C is chosen such that the first moments of area in the coordinate system C y are ero: Q y = Q = dã = ( C ) dã = 0 ydã = (y ỹ C ) dã = 0 (1.68) These conditions give ỹ C = Q à C = Q y à (1.69) The point C is the modulus-weighted centroid of the cross section. When the material is homogeneous, C becomes the familiar geometric centroid, given by Eq. (1.56). Transform Eq. (1.65) for the constants κ ɛ, κ y, κ to the centroidal coordinate system. Introduce Eq.

The position vector r of a point P on the cross section may be expressed as r = yj + k = y j + k (1.76) where y and are the coordinates of P from the y, axes. Similarly, y and are the coordinates of P from the y, axes. The y, coordinates can be obtained in terms of the y, coordinates (Fig. 1.11): y = yj j + k j = y cos ϕ + sin ϕ = yj k + k k = ysin ϕ + cos ϕ (1.77) Suppose that the differential area da is located at point P.

The use of the familiar trigonometric identities cos ϕ = 1+cos ϕ,sin ϕ = 1 cos ϕ,sinϕ cos ϕ = sin ϕ, leads to an alternative form: I y = I y + I + I y I cos ϕ I y sin ϕ (1.79a)

These three area moments of inertia as functions of ϕ are shown in Fig Note that these moments of inertia are bounded. The upper bound for I y and I is I max = I 1 and the lower bound is I min = I. Also, for the product of inertia I y, 1 (I 1 I ) I y +1 (I 1 I ) (1.80) The extreme values of the moments of inertia I 1 and I are called principal moments of inertia and the corresponding angles define the principal directions. In the case shown in Fig. 1.1, both I 1 and I arepositive.asobservedinfig.1.1bythe vertical dashed lines, the product of inertia is ero at the principal directions, which are 90 apart. That is, the two principal directions are perpendicular to each other. To find the angle ϕ at which the moment of inertia I y assumes its maximum value, set I y / ϕ equal to ero. From Eq. (1.79a) this gives (I y I )( sin ϕ) I y cos ϕ = 0 (1.81) I ' I 1 I I y' I y'' ϕ π π Figure 1.1 Three moments of inertia as a function of the rotation angle ϕ.

(1.8) also corresponds to the rotation for which the product of inertia I y is ero. This result, which also was observed in Fig. 1.1, is verified by substituting Eq. (1.81) into Eq. (1.79c). Equation (1.81) determines two values of ϕ that are 180 apart, that is, two values of ϕ that are 90 apart. At these values, the moments of inertia I y and I assume their maximum or minimum possible values, that is, the principal moments of inertia I 1 and I. The magnitudes of I 1 and I can be obtained by substituting ϕ of Eq. (1.8) into Eq. (1.79a and b). These same values will be obtained below by a different technique. The corresponding directions defined by ±j and ±k are the principal directions. As a particular case, if a cross section is symmetric about an axis, this axis of symmetry is a principal axis. Consider another approach to finding the magnitudes of the principal moments of inertia I 1 and I. It is possible to derive some relationships that are invariant with respect to the rotating coordinate system. It follows from Eq. (1.78) or (1.79) that I y + I = I y + I I y I I y = I y I I y (1.83) As noted above, the product of inertia I y is ero at the principal directions and I y and I become I 1 and I.Then I y + I = I y + I = I 1 + I I y I I y = I y I I y = I 1I (1.84) The principal moments of inertia I 1 and I can be considered to be the roots of the equation Expand Eq.

It is useful to place the transformation relations of Eq. (1.78) or (1.79) in a particular matrix form. Equation (1.87) can be expressed as (I I y )(I I ) I y = 0 (1.89) or I I y I y I y I I = 0 (1.90) This determinant is the characteristic equation for the symmetric matrixa: A = [ ] Iy I y I y I (1.91) With the negative signs on I y, A transforms according to the rotation conventions implied by Fig with ϕ measured counterclockwise positive from the y axis. Define a rotation matrix [ ] cos ϕ sin ϕ R = (1.9) sin ϕ cos ϕ It may be verified that the transformation A = [ ] Iy I y I y I = RAR 1 = RAR T (1.93) is identical to the rotation transformation equations of Eq. (1.78) or (1.79) derived from Fig If the off-diagonal elements of A are taken to be +I y, the relationship between A and A no longer matches these equations. An alternative approach is to base the determination of the principal axes on the diagonaliation of matrix A of Eq. (1.91). When the product of inertia I y is ero, the y, axes are already the principal axes and no further computation is necessary.

29 PRINCIPAL BENDING AXES 9 In the special case when I y = I, any axis is a principal axis. If I y is not ero, the two vectors v 1 = I y j + (I y I 1 )k v = (I I )j + I y k (1.94) are two orthogonal eigenvectors of A corresponding to the eigenvalues I 1 and I. Some characteristics of eigenvectors are discussed in Chapter 8. The angle ϕ between the y axis and the axis belonging to the larger principal moment of inertia can be computed as the angle between ±v 1 and j: ϕ = tan 1 I y I 1 I y (1.95) Since the angle between the smaller principal value and the y axis is ϕ + 90,the specification of ϕ is enough to determine both principal axes. The results of this section apply also to nonhomogeneous beams. It is only necessary to replace all geometric section properties with modulus-weighted ones. If a nonhomogeneous section has an axis of geometric as well as elastic symmetry, it may be concluded that this axis is a principal axis.

(1.96) reduces to σ x = M y I + M y I y (1.97) In general, the bending moment components are initially calculated in any convenient coordinate system, and when using Eq. (1.96) or (1.97), it is necessary to compute the bending moment components along the principal bending axes. Example 1. Thin-Walled Cantilevered Beam with an Asymmetrical Cross Section. Return to the cantilevered angle of Fig. 1.8 and find the normal stresses using Eq. (1.97), which is based on the principal bending axes. SOLUTION. From Eq. (1) of Example 1.1 and Eq.

Further manipulations are necessary to determine which angle corresponds to I 1 and which to I. For example, place ϕ = 15.8 into I y of Eq. (1.78) and find I y = (a 3 t/4)( ), which is equal to I 1. The problem of the uncertainty of which value of ϕ corresponds to I 1 is avoided if Eq. (1.95) is used. In this case, ϕ = tan 1 I y I [ ( 1 = tan 1 1 I 8 13 )] 33 y (5) so that ϕ = 15.8 and 164., both of which identify I 1 (Fig. 1.13). The cross-sectional normal stress σ x is given by Eq. (1.97).

At point B, y = a/6, = a/3, and Eq. (1.77) gives y = 0.34a and = 0.596a. From(7), (σ x ) B = PL/a t. At point D, y = a/6, = 4a/3, y = 0.03a, = 1.38a,and(σ x ) D = 5PL/4a t. These are the values calculated in Example AXIAL LOADS An axial load N x appliedinthex direction at point P of the beam cross section shown in Fig. 1.7 causes additional normal stress. In this case, it is necessary to replace the force at P with its force couple equivalent at the centroid C. The moment of the equivalent couple is r PC N x i = ( P k + y P j) N x i = P N x j y P N x k (1.98) where y P, P are the coordinates of point P in the coordinate system C y. The additional bending moments due to the axial force are added to the pure bending moments My 0, M0 at the section M y = M 0 y + P N x M = M 0 y P N x (1.99) With the inclusion of the axial force, Eqs.

The elasticity solution for the displacements u x, u y,and u of a homogeneous beam in pure bending is obtained by assuming a strain field and attempting to satisfy the equations of elasticity. The axes are chosen as shown in Fig The origin O is at the centroid C of the cross section, so that the (x, y, ) and (x, y, ) axes coincide. The beam material is assumed to be homogeneous and body forces are assumed to be absent. It follows from the displacement of Eq. (1.47) that a reasonable form of the strains is ɛ x = κ ɛ + κ y κ y ɛ y = νɛ x ɛ = νɛ x γ xy = 0 γ y = 0 γ x = 0 (1.10) As shown in Eq. (1.48), the strain ɛ x is obtained from u/ x.thisstrainfield identically satisfies the conditions of compatibility of Eq. (1.9). Substitution of the strains of Eq. (1.10) into the Hooke s law formulas of Eq. (1.18) shows that the only nonero stress is the axial stress: The total axial force N x acting on the cross section is σ x = Eɛ x (1.103) N x = σ x da = E (κ ɛ + κ y κ y) da = Eκ ɛ A (1.104) In this calculation, the factors multiplying κ y and κ, that is, the integrals E da and E yda, are proportional to the y, coordinates of the centroid, which are both ero because the centroid C is at the origin O of the coordinates. For pure bending the axial force N x will be ero (Eq. 1.46). It follows from Eq. (1.104) that the constant κ ɛ is ero. Then the y, components of the bending moment as expressed by Eq. (1.45) are

Equation (1.105) can be solved for the constants κ y and κ,giving κ y = I M y + I y M E(I y I I y ) κ = I ym y + I y M E(I y I I y ) (1.106) It follows from σ x = Eɛ x = E(κ y κ y) that the axial stress is again given by Eq (1.57), with y = y and =. The displacements can be obtained from the strain displacement relations of Eq. (1.3). With the strains given by Eq. (1.10), ɛ x = u x x = κ y κ y ɛ = u = ν(κ y κ y) γ x = u x + u x = 0 ɛ y = u y y = ν(κ y κ y) γ xy = u y x + u x y = 0 γ y = u y + u y = 0 (1.107) The displacements will be determined from these six equations by direct integration. From the first equation, the axial displacement may be expressed as u x = κ y x κ xy + u x0 (y, ) (1.108) where u x0 is an unknown function of y and. The derivatives of u y and u with respect to x are given in terms of u x0 by γ xy = 0andγ x = 0: u y x = u x y = κ x u x0 y u x = u x = κ yx u x0 (1.109) from which the displacements u y and u are obtained in the form u y = κ x u = κ y x x u x0 y + u y0(y, ) x u x0 + u 0 (y, ) (1.110) where u y0 and u 0 are unknown functions of y and, respectively.

34 34 BEAMS IN BENDING The second and third strain displacement relations of Eq. (1.107) become ɛ y = u y y = x u x0 y + u y0 = ν(κ y κ y) y or x u x0 y + u y0 y + ν(κ y κ y) = 0 ɛ = u = x u x0 + u 0 = ν(κ y κ y) (1.111) or x u x0 + u 0 + ν(κ y κ y) = 0 Note the functional form of these equations, with the coordinate x occurring only once as a factor multiplying a second partial derivative of u x0. Since these equations must hold for all values of x, u x0 u x0 y = 0 = 0 (1.11) Consequently, u y0 and u 0 can be obtained by integration of Eq. (1.111): ( ) y u y0 = ν κ y y κ + u y1 () u 0 = ν ( κ y κ y ) + u 1 (y) The final strain displacement relation of Eq.

The relations du 1 dy νκ du y1 y y = C 0 + νκ = C 0 (1.118) d u x0 y = 0 u x0 = 0 u x0 y = 0 (1.119) of Eqs. (1.11) and (1.116) show that the function u x0 has the form u x0 = C 1 y + C + C 3 (1.10) in which the C k are constants. It follows from Eq. (1.108) that the axial displacement appears as u x = κ y x κ xy + C 1 y + C + C 3 (1.11) To find u y1, u 1 of Eq. (1.113), integrate Eq. (1.118): u y1 = C 0 νκ + C 4 y u 1 = C 0 y + νκ y + C 5 (1.1) so that, from Eq. (1.113), ( ) y u y0 = ν κ y y κ C 0 + C 4 ( ) (1.13) y u 0 = ν κ y κ y + C 0 y + C 5 The displacements u y and u of Eq.

For example, suppose that the centroid at the origin

36 36 BEAMS IN BENDING of the coordinates (x = 0, y = 0, = 0) at the left end (x = 0) of the horiontal beam is fixed such that no translational or rotational motion is possible. Then u x = 0, u y = 0, u = 0atx = 0, y = 0, = 0. Also, at x = 0, y = 0, = 0, there is no rotation in the direction ( u / x = 0), norotationinthey direction ( u y / x = 0), and no rotation about the x axis ( u y / = 0). The enforcement of these boundary conditions amounts to restraining the beam at x = 0, y = 0, = 0 against rigid-body translation and rotation. From Eqs. (1.11) and (1.14) these boundary conditions require that C 0 = 0, C 1 = 0, C = 0, C 3 = 0, C 4 = 0, C 5 = 0 (1.15) The displacements can now be written as (Eqs. 1.11, 1.14, and 1.15) u x = (κ y κ y)x ( ) x u y = κ ν y κ y y κ ( ) x u = κ y ν y κ y κ y (1.16a) (1.16b) (1.16c) Consider a special case of a beam with a cross section symmetric about the axis and for which M = 0. Then, from Eq. (1.106), κ = 0andκ y = M y /EI y.for this case, the displacements of Eq. (1.16) become u x = κ y x u y = νκ y y (1.17a) (1.17b) u = κ y [x + ν( y )] (1.17c) The deflection of the centroidal beam axis is given by Eq. (1.17c) with y and equal to ero; that is, u (x, 0, 0) = w = κ y x = M y x EI y (1.18) This is the same deflection given by engineering beam theory (Chapter ) for a cantilevered beam loaded with a concentrated moment at the free end. Some interesting characteristics of beams in bending can be studied by considering the displacements away from the central axis. To find the axial displacement at a particular cross section, say at x = a, consider u x (x, y, ) of Eq. (1.17a). Thus u x (a, y, ) = κ y a (1.19)

37 ELASTICITY SOLUTION FOR PURE BENDING 37 We see that cross-sectional planes remain planar. This is not surprising since the assumed strain ɛ x corresponds to a linear variation in the displacements in the y and directions (Eq. 1.47). Note from Eq. (1.17a) that beam fibers in the = 0 plane do not displace in the x direction [i.e., u x (x, y, 0) = 0]. Consequently, this plane is referred to as the neutral plane.thex axis before deformation is designated as the neutral axis. To illustrate the distortion of the cross-section profile, consider the rectangular section of Fig From Eq. (1.17b), the horiontal displacements u y of the vertical sides are u y ( x, ± b, ) =± b ( νκ y) (1.130) Thus, the vertical sides rotate. The vertical displacements of the top and bottom ( =±h/) are (Eq. 1.17c) ( u x, y, ± h ) = κ [ ( )] [ ( )] y x h + ν 4 y = M x h + ν EI y 4 y (1.131) where, as seen in Fig. 1.15a, κ y = M y /EI y = M/EI y. This shows that the top and bottom are deformed into parabolic shapes. Assume that b h. Note that if the curvature of the longitudinal axis of the beam is concave upward (Fig. 1.15a), the curvature of the top and bottom surfaces are concave downward (Fig. 1.15b). This is referred to as anticlastic curvature. For the thin-walled beam of Fig. 1.15, the anticlastic curvature can be significant. In contrast, if the depth and width are of comparable sie (Fig. 1.14), the effect is small. h y b Figure 1.14 Beam cross section.

38 38 BEAMS IN BENDING M M y y h x b/ (a) (b) Figure 1.15 Anticlastic curvature. There is a simple physical interpretation of this behavior in bending. For pure bending as shown in Fig. 1.15a, the upper fibers are in compression and the lower fibers in tension. Strain ɛ x along the x direction is accompanied by strain νɛ x in the y direction, where ν is Poisson s ratio. It follows that as the upper fibers are compressed in the x direction, they become somewhat longer in the y direction. Conversely, as the lower fibers are extended in the x direction, they shorten in the y direction. Engineering Beam Theory In contrast to the pure bending assumptions of this section, engineering beam theory, which is presented in Chapter, is applied to beams under general lateral loading conditions. The bounding surface of the beam is often not free of stress; body forces are not necessarily ero; the shear force at each section is nonero; and the bending moment is not constant along the beam. Engineering beam theory neglects the normal stresses σ y and σ, which are much smaller than the axial stress. Also neglected is the influence of Poisson s ratio, so that longitudinal fibers deform independently. For engineering beam theory, the normal stresses and strains are calculated as in the case of pure bending, although the bending moment is no longer constant along the beam axis.
