Mechanics and Materials I - Lecture 6: Non-Uniformly Distributed Loads, Study Guides, Projects, Research of Materials science

In this lecture, Prof. Carol Livermore discusses the analysis of structures subjected to non-uniformly distributed loads. the concept of sign convention, lump analysis, and the determination of internal forces and moments for a given load distribution. Students will learn how to find reactions at supports and plot the results.

Lump:

Fy = 0

q 0 L L − q 0 x − Vy = 0 ⇒ Vy q 0 − x 2 2

Sanity Check

Pinned and Pinned on rollers at end

Cannot support moment M at ends

Can support x and y loads ⇒ OK

Fy = 0

Vy − (Vy + δVy ) + qδx = 0

δVy = qδx

Limit as δx 0

qdVy → ⇒ dx

M 0 = 0

δx δx −Mz + Mz + δMz − Vy −(Vy + δVy ) = 0 2 2

δx δx δMz − 2 Vy − δVy 2 2

δx δMz = Vy δx − δVy 2

δMz δVy Vy = + δx 2

Take limit δx → 0

dMz Vy = dx

dVy q = dx

But what if load is not uniformly distributed?

This is a 2-force member.
