CASTIGLIANO’S THEOREMS CLASS NOTES FOR MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Castiglioni’s Method This method deals with displacements with respect to strain energy. Strain energy is also called potential energy. It is also named as Internal energy. Deflection is found using strain energy. Strain energy is recoverable as mechanical energy. Displacement in Castilian’s method means Extension under an axial tensile…
SLOPE AND DEFLECTION CLASS NOTES FOR MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SLOPE It is angular shift at any point of the beam between no load condition and loaded beam. Its value is different at different points on the length of the beam. It is represented by dy/dx or θ. Its units are radians. There is a…
SLOPE AND DEFLECTION MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS (MCQ) WITH ANSWERS Maximum deflection in a S.S. Beam with ‘W’ not at the center will be (a) W b (L2 –b2)1.5/3√3 EI (b) W b (L2 –b2)1.5 /6√3 EI (c) W b (L2 –b2)1.5/ 9√3 EI (d) None (Ans: c) Deflection under the load in a S.S. Beam…
