Material Joining and Beam Bending Lab 5 Beam Deflection Every object acts as a spring – it will deflect when a force is applied Extent of deflection depends on force applied, material properties and object shape Differences in Deflection Moments of Inertia A larger moment of inertia means that the beam will be more resistant to deflection Stress and Strain: Simple Definitions Stress and Strain: Simple Definitions Cantilever Beam Bending Equation In this lab, you will measure the deflection d for various loads P. Using this information and other measurements, calculate Young’s modulus E for each beam. Material Joining A separate demonstration will be given on the welding procedure The final product will form a ‘T’ shape Things to Consider: How will joining the beams through welding affect the overall stiffness? Is there any advantage to choosing a more flexible material such as aluminum over a stiffer material such as steel? Hypothetically, if you were to design a 9x9” robot spring quarter, which materials do you feel would be most suited for use? Which shapes would form a stiffer chassis? Questions ? Engineering H191 - Drafting / CAD *Autumn Quarter Gateway Engineering Education Coalition Although the beams have the same cross-sectional area, the moments of inertia are different Because the moments of inertia are different, the beams deflect different amounts I = Area Moments of Inertia (depends on object shape) b h Strain: Stress: (lb/inch2) A (cross-sectional area) P (applied force) L (original length) d (deflection from original length) Stress vs. Strain Curves: Young’s Modulus (slope of curve or material stiffness) Linear Portion (Hooke’s Law): Strain: Stress: (lb/inch2) P L s y x Instructor: B=base H=height These values depend on the orientation of the object and the direction of the force that’s being applied. If the box on the left were rotated 90 degrees, the height would now be larger and the base would be smaller. The example on the right
