    Cantilever beam point load analysis with diagram

    I understood for a rectangular beam Ix = b*h3 / 12 where b = width h = height its not the thickness but the height of the beam that is entered into the formula?

    Cantilever beam point load analysis with diagram

    Its point load so its 0.24m from fixed end to load (P) then 0.02 after load, giving a total length of 0.26m. The load at 0.24m is 4.9N Y from the bending formula is distance from neutral fibres to base and so neutral axis is 3mm as total thickness is 6mm. Second moment of area I've now...

    Cantilever beam point load analysis with diagram

    Im essentially trying to gain a value for the maximum stress recorded from a cantilever beam so that this can be compared to that of an FEA model. However to do this I need to obtain values for bending moment, stiffness, strain etc beforehand. I have no direct question for this problem other...

    How do I determine the K value from a cantilever beam deflection test?

    Hi, I am new to this type of material and am hoping that someone may be able to assist me. In short I am putting a cantilever beam under test to determine its bending moment and stiffness (K value) in order to get a strain reading that can be related to an exact model in solid works. The...
