• General relationships

• Two problems considered

– Thick symmetrical section

• Shear stresses are small compared to bending stresses if h/L << 1

– Thin-walled (unsymmetrical) sections

• Shear stresses are not small compared to bending stresses

• Deflection mainly results from bending stresses

• 2 cases

– Open thin-walled sections

» Shear = shearing through the shear center + torque

– Closed thin-walled sections

» Twist due to shear has the same expression as torsion

• Consequence on bending

– The position of the neutral axis, and thus the second moments of area

• Refer to the direct stress carrying area only

• Depend on the loading case only

• Consequence on shearing

– Open part of the shear flux

• Shear flux for open sections

• Consequence on torsion

– If no axial constraint

• Torsion analysis does not involve axial stress

• So torsion is unaffected by the structural idealization

• Virtual displacement

– In linear elasticity the general formula of virtual displacement reads

• s (1) is the stress distribution corresponding to a (unit) load P(1)

• DP is the energetically conjugated displacement to P in the direction of P(1) that

corresponds to the strain distribution e

– Example: bending of a semi cantilever beam

– In the principal axes

– Example: shearing of a semi-cantilever beam

– Assumptions

• No axial constraints (warping allowed)

– This is a severe restriction for wings

– No axial stresses

• Shape of the wing unchanged after torsion

– Methodology

• No axial stresses only shearing

booms can be ignored

• The N cells carry the torque Mx

• There is a constant shear flux qi in each

cell i of open area Ahi:

• To compute the fluxes

– Compatibility of displacements has to be ensured

same rate of twist in each cell

– For constant m

• Example

– Straight wing box

– Idealized cross-sections

• Booms carry direct stresses only

• Skins carry shear stress only

– 2-mm thick

– E = 69 GPa, m = 25.9 GPa

• Singly symmetrical section

– Load

• At the free surface

• Through shear center

– Deflection

• Due to direct stress?

• Due to shear flux?
