Engineers must calculate deflection to prevent excessive bending that could damage the beam or surrounding components or make the structure unsafe.We’ll cover five common methods for calculating ...

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 ...

Metamaterials (MMs) are synthetic composite structures with superior properties not found in naturally occurring materials. MMs have gained massive attention over the last two decades because of their ...

Scientific research has proved that metasurfaces possess remarkable abilities in controlling the transmission, reflection, and polarization of electromagnetic waves. Here, a coplanar metasurface (CPMS ...

The deflection of the side impact beam in the door model without frame was found to be 3 mm more at 211 mm. The removal of the frame from the door therefore only amounted to a 1.4% increase in ...
