The photograph illustrates the shape change of elements of a beam in bending. Note that the material is in compression on the inside of the curve and tension on the outside of the curve, and that ...

When a load pushes down on the beam, the beam's top edge is pushed together (compression) while the bottom edge is stretched (tension). Take a flat eraser or a small sponge and slice a shallow ...

It remains unclear whether boiling metal surfaces can still show surface tension, says Prof Dr-Ing. Jörg Volpp, Associate ...

The dynamics of viscoelastic beams and structures is a critical area ... For example, a novel method was proposed for real-time tension estimation in the spinning process of polyester filament ...
