no , i am concern about how should the beam be cut ? i divided the beam into 3 parts like this(red) , whereas the author divided the beam into 3 parts like this (green), i gt 30000 , but the author gt 29750 , there's a difference of 250 , which is correct ?PhanthomJay said:
sorry , i messed up QC and QD , question solvedPhanthomJay said:
Shear flow in a hollow beam refers to the distribution of shear stress along the cross-section of the beam. It is caused by shear forces acting on the beam, and can be calculated by dividing the shear force by the area of the beam section.
Shear flow can significantly affect the strength of a hollow beam, as it can lead to shear buckling and failure. It is important to consider shear flow in the design and analysis of hollow beams to ensure their structural stability.
The magnitude and direction of the shear force, the geometry and dimensions of the beam section, and the material properties of the beam all influence shear flow in a hollow beam. The type of loading and boundary conditions can also affect shear flow.
Shear flow can be calculated using the shear flow equation, which takes into account the shear force, beam section area, and the distance from the neutral axis to the point of interest. It is also important to consider the shear flow distribution along the entire length of the beam.
Yes, shear flow can be controlled by adjusting the geometry and dimensions of the beam section, as well as the material properties. Other methods like using stiffeners and cross-section reinforcements can also help to reduce shear flow in a hollow beam.
