The Efficient Engineer - Understanding Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams, 20112019

This video is an introduction to shear force and bending moment diagrams, explaining what they are and outlining how to draw the Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams

The Efficient Engineer - Understanding Stresses in Beams

This video explores bending and shear stresses in beams

The Efficient Engineer - Understanding the Deflection of Beams

In this video we 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 of superposition, the moment-area method, and Castigliano's theorem, which is based on strain energy.
