In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...

The integrations needed to determine beam deflections require the enforcement of the appropriate displacement and rotation boundary conditions (BCs). It is important that we be able to recognize these ...

When used in structural engineering, the term deflection refers to load-induced displacement, which typically affects beam designs. It can be an extremely complicated value to calculate when ...

One metric to determine the reliability of beams is the deflection value, which should be appropriately low relative to the structure the beams are used in. Engineering codes such as ACI codes ...

A magnified copy of the laminated beam deflection is shown below to assist you in seeing the inter-laminate motion as the beam deflects.

This makes it unique on the global market of laser beam deflection units. Moreover, its digital feedback control allows for a comprehensive system diagnosis and process optimization. From welding of ...
