Assumptions, Limitations and Applications of Bernoulli’s Equation
Abstract: The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, also called “beam theory”, is a condensed version of the linearisotropic theory of elasticity and can be used to predict the load-carrying and deflection properties ofbeams. It was initially stated around the year 1750, but it was not widely used until the Eiffel Towerand the Ferris Wheel were built in the late 19th century. It immediately became an engineering pillarand a catalyst for the Second Industrial …

Structural Mechanics: Its Boundary Conditions and Applications
Abstract: Structural mechanics is the study of the calculation of deformations, deflections, internal forces, orstresses (stress equivalents) within structures, either for design or for performance assessment ofalready-existing structures. An area of structural analysis is this. Structural loads, the geometricrepresentation and support circumstances of the structure, as well as the material properties, are allinput variables for structural mechanics analyses. Support responses, strains, and displacementscould all be included in the output numbers. The …
