Analysis of scoop stretcher - deflection and bending stress help

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on conducting a theoretical force analysis of a scoop stretcher, specifically its deflection and bending stress. Participants are asked for guidance on how to calculate these factors for the tapered rectangular plate design. A request is made for a free-body diagram that illustrates constraints, applied forces, dimensions, and the material of the plate. The conversation emphasizes the need for technical insights and visual aids to support the analysis. Overall, the thread seeks to enhance understanding of the structural integrity of scoop stretchers.

Analysis of scoop stretcher -- deflection and bending stress help

I wanted to do a theoritical force analysis on the scooping part of scoop stretcher (a tapered rectangular plate). Can anyone suggest how to determine its deflection and bending stress ?

Would you be able to post a free-body diagram (FBD) of the tapered rectangular plate, showing constraints, applied forces, dimensions, and plate material?
 
Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...
Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
TL;DR Summary: Heard in the news about using sonar to locate the sub Hello : After the sinking of the ship near the Greek shores , carrying of alot of people , there was another accident that include 5 tourists and a submarine visiting the titanic , which went missing Some technical notes captured my attention, that there us few sonar devices are hearing sounds repeated every 30 seconds , but they are not able to locate the source Is it possible that the sound waves are reflecting from...
