just rise the temperature. simple
as single beam of sunlight is considered thermal energy.
The stress you induce on the beam is equal to weight hanging on the beam. The answer for the where part of the question is in the question. You said it yourself; you hang the weight from the center of the beam, therefore the stress of the weight will be in the center of the beam.
Thermal energy is simply heat. Light a fire.
zero stress
when the temperature of the body is lowered or raised, it contracts or expands accordingly. If this expansion or contraction is prevented, then a stress is produced called thermal stress
Well, they both generate thermal pollution, but after they differ wildly.
Most things have thermal energy. Thermal energy is comes from heat and therefore anything that can generate heat has thermal energy. All living things have thermal energy.
It depends on the stress/load applied to a beam, but a general rule is to provide a lap where the stress is the least. In a simply supported beam with a uniformly distributed load the best place to position laps would be away from the centre of the beam.

yes. the reactions that take place in our body, such as respiration, generate heat
