THank you...

I know that stiffness is load per unit deflection. I have the load versus deflection curve for a steel plate. Is it possible for me to find the stiffness of the plate? Thank you.

will the plate and rod have the same mass after homogenization? It won't right?

Ok thanks buddy... Thank you very much...

Homogenization of a plate to an equivalent rod... Folks, I have a doubt... Sorry if it is a really stupid one...:rolleyes: Imagine you have a steel plate say 200mm by 200mm in dimension, with a stiffness of say some "k" N/mm... Is there any formula to convert that plate into an...

Why do we call the constant of proportionality in hook's law as Young's Modulus and not as Young's coefficient? Is there any difference in Modulus and coefficient in engineering context?

Does it mean that deformation is not significant enough to affect the normal?

Ya you Love's assumption. I am extremely sorry pal. I understood first 3 this one I can't... Plz help

Doubt in Love's hypothesis... Please help... "Normal to the reference surface of the beam remain normal to it and undergo no change in length during deformation" What does this mean? please help...

Woah when did I say that I am interested in that? And thanks a tonne for those websites... So now my next set of doubt are... What is compressibility? I know that compressibility is the change in density with respect to change in speed... When you say change in density, is it simply...

Dude I am just trying to learn my way, and I don't think I am hurting anyone out here I am just trying to be creative in thinking so I came up with that so called hypothesis... And can you suggest me any book which explains this? cause I have none... So the molecules in ice are theoretically...

ok assuming that you guys agree that it is legal to say so, here comes my next doubt... If I say that h2o in solid state (ice in this case) has dead molecules, i.e molecules without any energy, is it a right statement or am I fantasizing? I know that it is the property of h2o (any liquid)...

A thermodynamic/aerodynamic doubt... Hi peeps... Physics forums rock... k now. Before asking my doubt I need to ask small small doubts before the big one... So I guess this question will lead to a hot discussion eventually... Doubt number 1 Is it legal to say that 1 litre of h2o in...

andre where are you?
