Planetary defence research often sits between modelling and imagination, with few chances to test real materials under realistic conditions. A new stu.

Abstract The evaluation of the deflection in beams is an indispensable step of the structural design. Currently, many standard codes adopt the Branson’s model. However, the Branson’s model ...

Euler-Bernoulli (EB) and Timoshenko-Ehrenfest (TE) theories model simple beams under linear constraints. But even keeping these constraints, specific structural effects in real applications compromise ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...

The construction of concrete-filled steel tube tied-arch bridges typically employs the “beam first and arch later” methodology. In this approach, tie beams are initially constructed on temporary ...

A 13-page engineering report in LaTeX that derives and determines the differential equation for the equation of the deflection curve of a simply supported beam under a uniform load and maximum ...

Abstract: Position measurement methods based on optical beam deflection (OBD) require sensing of the displacement of a cantilever's tip. When the cantilever is scanned over a surface, the tip is ...

NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission struck the 160-m moonlet asteroid Dimorphos (shown) in September 2022, changing its orbital period but generating a trail of debris called a surface ...
