Strain of a wire tied with an angle in a beam

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on calculating the strain of a steel wire attached to a cantilever beam based on the beam's tip displacement due to vibration. The wire is positioned at a 30º angle to the beam, and the user seeks a method to derive the wire's strain from the available displacement data. They have experimented with the wire parallel to the beam but found that it required significantly more force. The user is conducting simulations and is looking for the correct approach to determine the strain. The focus remains on finding a reliable calculation method for the wire's strain related to the beam's vibrations.

Well, i have a cantilever beam where i have the displacement of the tip of the beam (y axis) data from a vibration of this beam. In the tip of the beam is a steel wire attached, pulling up the beam with an angle (30º for example).

I want to know if exists a form to obtain the strain of the wire based on the displacement of the beam (the vibration).

Thanks

Are these beam questions of yours for schoolwork? If so, they should be posted in the Homework Help forums...

@Gerrgegeorge :

Let us deal with the basic problem on your other thread first . We can come back to this one later .

No, is a project of mine.

I am using a specific material to control the vibration of the beam, this material is a wire. I have tried without the angle (paralel to the beam) but in this mode the force that i need is much high.
As my material varies is force based on his strain i need this information, but the problem is that i only have the vibration of the beam information (strain gage)

I have some ideas, but as i making simulations i want to know the right method.
 
Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
