UNIT–5 ADVANCED TOPICS IN BENDING OF BEAMS

PART - A (2 marks)

1. Define Unsymmetrical bending

The plane of loading (or) that of bending does not lie in (or) a plane that contains the

principle centroidal axis of the cross- section; the bending is called Unsymmetrical bending.

2. State the two reasons for unsymmetrical bending. (AUC May/June 2012)

(AUC Ap[r /May 2011)

(i) The section is symmetrical (viz. Rectangular, circular, I section) but the load line is

inclined to both the principal axes.

(ii) The section is unsymmetrical (viz. Angle section (or) channel section vertical web)

and the load line is along any centroidal axes.

3. Define shear centre.

The shear centre (for any transverse section of the beam) is the point of intersection

of the bending axis and the plane of the transverse section. Shear centre is also known as

“centre of twist”

t1 = thickness of the flange

h = height of the web

b1 = width of the flange in right portion.

b2 = width of the flange in left portion.

Ixx = M.O.I of the section about XX axis.

7. State the assumptions made in Winkler’s Bach Theory.(AUC Nov / Dec 2012)

(AUC Nov/Dec 2013) (AUC May/June 2012)

(1) Plane sections (transverse) remain plane during bending.

(2) The material obeys Hooke’s law (limit state of proportionality is not exceeded)

(3) Radial strain is negligible.

(4) The fibres are free to expand (or) contract without any constraining effect from

the adjacent fibres.

8. State the parallel Axes and Principal Moment of inertia.

If the two axes about which the product of inertia is found, are such , that the product

of inertia becomes zero, the two axes are then called the principle axes. The moment of

inertia about a principal axes is called the principal moment of inertia.

9. Define stress concentration. . (AUC Nov / Dec 2011)

The term stress gradient is used to indicate the rate of increase of stress as a stress

raiser is approached. These localized stresses are called stress concentration.

10. Define stress – concentration factor.

It is defined as the ratio of the maximum stress to the nominal stress.

max = maximum stress

nom = nominal stress

MUTHUKUMAR.P/Asst.Prof./CIVIL-III Page 3

11. Define fatigue stress concentration factor.

The fatigue stress – concentration factor (Kf ) is defined as the ratio of flange limit of

unnotched specimen to the fatigue limit of notched specimen under axial (or) bending loads.

)1(1 tf KqK

Value of q ranges from zero to one.

12. Define shear flow.

13. Explain the position of shear centre in various sections.

(i) In case of a beam having two axes of symmetry, the shear centre coincides with

the centroid.

(ii) In case of sections having one axis of symmetry, the shear centre does not

coincide with the centroid but lies on the axis of symmetry.

14. State the principles involved in locating the shear centre.

The principle involved in locating the shear centre for a cross – section of a beam is

that the loads acting on the beam must lie in a plane which contains the resultant shear

force on each cross-section of the beam as computed from the shearing stresses.

15. Determine the position of shear centre of the section of the beam shown in fig.

Solution:

t1 = 4 cm, b1 = 6 cm, b2 = 8 cm

17. Define the term Fatigue.

Fatigue is defined as the failure of a material under varying loads, well below the

ultimate static load, after a finite number of cycles of loading and unloading.

18. State the types of fatigue stress.

(i) Direct stress

(ii) Plane bending

(iii) Rotating bending

(iv) Torsion

(v) Combined stresses

(a) Fluctuating or alternating stress

(b) Reversed stress.

19. State the reasons for stress- concentration.

When a large stress gradient occurs in a small, localized area of a structure, the high

stress is referred to as a stress concentration. The reasons for stress concentration are (i)

discontinuities in continuum (ii) contact forces.

20. Define creep.

Creep can be defined as the slow and progressive deformation of a material with

time under a constant stress.

21. Define principal moment of inertia. (AUC Nov/Dec 2013)

The perpendicular axis about which the product of inertia is zero are called“principal axes” and the

moments of inertia with respect to these axes are called as principal

moments of inertia.

The maximum moment of inertia is known as Major principal moment of inertia and

the minimum moment of inertia is known as Minor principal moment of inertia.

PART B (16 MARKS)

1. Explain the stresses induced due to unsymmetrical bending.

Fig. shows the cross-section of a beam under the action of a bending moment M

acting in plane YY.

Also G = centroid of the section,

XX, YY = Co-ordinate axes passing through G,

UU, VV = Principal axes inclined at an angle θ to XX and YY axes respectively

The moment M in the plane YY can be resolved into its components in the planes

UU and VV as follows:

Moment in the plane UU, M’ = M sinθ

Moment in the plane VV, M’ = M cosθ

The components M’ and M” have their axes along VV and UU respectively.

At any point the nature of σb will depend upon the quadrant in which it lies. The equation of

Following points are worth noting:

i. The maximum stress will occur at a point which is at the greatest distance form the

neutral

ii. All the points of the section on one side of neutral axis will carry stresses of the same

nature and on the other side of its axis, of opposite nature.

iii. In the case where there is direct stress in addition to the bending stress, the neutral

axis will still be a straight line but will not pass through G (centroid of section.)

2. Derive the equation of Shear centre for channel section. (AUC April/May 2005)

Fig shows a channel section (flanges: b x t1 ; Web h x t2) with XX as the horizontal symmetric axis.

Let S = Applied shear force. (Vertical downward X)

(Then S is the shear force in the web in the upward direction)

S1 = Shear force in the top flange (there will be equal and opposite shear force in

the bottom flange as shown.)

4. Derive the stresses in curved bars using Winkler – Bach Theory.

The simple bending formula, however, is not applicable for deeply curved beams where the

neutral and centroidal axes do not coincide. To deal with such cases Winkler – Bach Theory is

used.

Fig shows a bar ABCD initially; in its unstrained state. Let AB’CD’ be the strained position of

the bar.

Let R = Radius of curvature of the centroidal axis HG.

Y = Distance of the fiber EF from the centroidal layer HG.

R’ = Radius of curvature of HG’

M = Uniform bending moment applied to the beam (assumed

positive when tending to increase the curvature)

= Original angle subtended by the centroidal axis HG at its

centre of curvature O and

’ = Angle subtended by HG’ (after bending) a t the center of curvature ’

For finding the strain and stress normal to the section, consider the fibre EF at a distance y

from the centroidal axis.

Let σ be the stress in the strained layer EF’ under the bending moment M and e is strain in the

same layer.

11. Derive the formula for the deflection of beams due to unsymmetrical bending.

Solution:

Fig. shows the transverse section of the beam with centroid G. XX and YY are two

rectangular co-ordinate axes and UU and VV are the principal axes inclined at an angle θ to the XY

set of co-ordinates axes. W is the load acting along the line YY on the section of the beam. The

load W can be resolved into the following two components:

(i) W sin θ …… along UG

(ii) W cos θ …… along VG

Let, δu = Deflection caused by the component W sin θ along the line GU for its bending about VV

axis, and

Δv = Deflection caused by the component W cos θ along the line GV due to bending abodt

UU axis.

Then depending upon the end conditions of the beam, the values of δu and δv are given by
