Question

How does the deflection of beams and shafts occur?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Deflection of the beam-In case of cantilever beam when the beam is loaded at its free end or away from the fixed end then deflection comes at the free end of the beam. In case simply supported beam, when the beam is loaded deflection and slope comes at the center of the beam . The values of the deflection can be determined with the help of the Macaulay method or moment area method.

$\begin{array}{l} deflection in simply supported beam due to point load at center \\ δ = \frac{w l^{3}}{48 E I} \\ deflection in Cantilever beam due to point load at free end \\ δ = \frac{w l^{3}}{3 E I} \end{array}$
