  • There is a reason why bending moment are taught in the first weeks of an engineering degree. Their importance and understanding is crucial for any engineer. This video intuitively explains what bending moments actually represent in an engineering context. The video uses only simple examples and avoids and use of any mathematics. Bending and shear diagrams are not covered in this video since the purpose is to build intuition rather than computational skills.

    - Bending moment bends the section
    - Torque twists the section

    Very helpful to visualise stresses in beam .Respect from India.
    I think...
    Torque is the moment which acts along the longitudinal axis of component and hence, it causes twisting effect.
    While bending moments are the moment acting along the lateral axes of the component and cause bending effect.

    Torque is vector. Bending moment is two forces, so it is two vectors, and we need some share forces to provide connection between them.

      torque produces torsion in beams while moment bends the beam

      @user-xj4ep5wb2j 9 місяців тому +1

      torque is acting parallel to the cross section (caused by shear forces) , while bending moment is acting perpendicular (caused by axial forces) that is the distinction between the two, they are both rotational forces

    @ahmedyehia9560 8 місяців тому

    Torsion is occurs when the object rotates about its longitudinal axis (generally called z axis)
    Bending ocurs when the obeject rotates about cross sectional axis (grnerally called x or y axis )

    In your example with paper sheets, you have 5 sheets (ood number). In that case, the middle sheet has no change in length. What will happen if you have an (even number) of sheets?

    • @TheEngineeringHub
      @TheEngineeringHub  9 місяців тому +1

      A useful way to think about it us at the limt case. By limit I mean when the thickness of the sheets gets infinitely small. Say 0.0000001 mm. In that case it doesn't matter too much whether there is 1 or 2 sheets at the middle. It just means that there is a theoretical point (line) where the stress is zero. Hope that helps 🙏

      @asmokneel2464 I would say at a support of a simply supported beam. The moment is 0 and the shear force goes from 0 to the value of the reaction, so technically, it has both values at that point.

    • @TheEngineeringHub
      @TheEngineeringHub  9 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for bringing this up Erik. In Structural Engineering, bolted connections only to the web of the beam are considered as pin connections and allow rotations. The top and bottom flanges would also need to be bolted if the connection was to be considered as fixed (see 4:46). The connection at 4:14 allows the beam to rotate a fraction of a degree which is enough to provide relief from the bending stresses.

    WTF. Never heard bending monent is a 2 force concept. Maybe 2nd force is the reaction to the force applied perpendicular to face. And torque is a special case of shear force. Unlike shear force, which is parallel to cross section amd perpendicular to face, torque is applied inclined to the face
