    Mass Wire
AI Thread Summary
To calculate wire bending as a function of length and mass, one must consider additional factors such as material properties, cross-sectional area, and the type of load applied. The bending of a wire is influenced by its elasticity and the moment of inertia, which are critical in determining how it will deform under stress. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding these variables beyond just mass. A valid solution was reached, indicating that the inquiry was resolved satisfactorily. Accurate calculations require a comprehensive approach to material mechanics.

please i need an answer for this quation, if i have a wire with mass m, how can i calculate its bending as a function on the length. thanks

You are aware, are you not, that this depends on much more than just the mass!
 
Thanks I reach to the valid solution, thanks a gain for you.

Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'

Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
