What is the significance of shear center?

It is very important to find the shear center for the beams or sections that are undergoing majority of the load under torsion or twisting then the material will not fail under torsion as at shear centre there will be no effect of torsion or twisting. It will fail only by bending or any other force.


Shear and torsion forces are a combination of what?

Shear and torsion forces are a combination of bending stress. This stress characterizes the behavior of a structural object subjected to an external load, which is applied perpendicular to the axis of the object.


Is a torsion force an internal force?

Yes,torsion(Twist) is an internal force,along with tension(stretch),shear(cut,bend),compression(squeeze).An internal force acts between two parts of something.


What are 5 different types of internal forces?

Tension, Compression, Shear FOrce, Bending Moment and Torsion


What is a twisting force?

In Design Technology, a twisting is know as TORSION


What has the author J A Ramirez written?

J. A. Ramirez has written: 'Review of design procedures for shear and torsion in reinforced and prestressed concrete' -- subject(s): Concrete beams, Prestressed concrete construction, Reinforced concrete construction, Shear (Mechanics), Torsion 'Robust Speech Recognition and Understanding' 'Transfer, development, and splice length for strand/reinforcement in high-strength concrete' 'Experimental verification of design procedures for shear and torsion in reinforced and prestressed concrete' -- subject(s): Concrete beams, Shear (Mechanics), Testing, Torsion 'Proposed design procedures for shear and torsion in reinforced and prestressed concrete' -- subject(s): Concrete beams, Prestressed concrete beams, Shear (Mechanics), Torsion


Where in the in cross section minimum shear stress is developed in case of a circular shaft under torsion?

Under torsion only, the shear stress is minimum, in fact zero, at the center point ( where radius is zero)


Where does pure shear apply?

Pure shear applies when you twist something (torsion) or under direct lateral load with no bending, as in a pin


What type of forces are directed through the arch?

i think its tension compression or shear or torsion


What are the 5 major stresses of aircraft?

Tension, Compression, Torsion/Tensile, Shear & Bending


What will be the shear force when bending moment is constant?

On SFD's and BMD's: The shear force will be 0, the shear force is the derivative of the bending moment at a point on shear force and bending moment diagrams. Otherwise: It depends on the loading.


What is a shearing force?

Shear force is a load (pounds, or newtons) in plane of the object which produces shear stress ( pounds per sq inch, or Pascals). Shear force is related to shear stress as STRESS = FORCE/AREA
