11) Ifwe attach an object of unknown mass M1 on the tip of beam, there will be initial force
acting on beam equal to weight W M 1 of object and it may cause a little deflection in beam
depending on the weight. Thus, total net force acting on beam can be given as,
F net=W M 1 + F
Where,
W M 1 is weight of mass on tip of beam.
Fis the force applied by observer.
The displacement ∆ covered by beam after putting some mass on it can be measured
experimentally and in mathematical form, it can be written as
W M 1∗l 3
∆= …(a)
3∗E∗I
Where,
L=span length of bending member
E=Elasticity modulus
I=moment of inertia
Total displacement covered by beam can be given as,
F net∗l3
∆ net = …(b)
3∗E∗I
Now assuming F=0, we have only W M 1 force being applied on beam. So,
F net=0+W M 1
W M 1=Mg ...(c)
Where,
M 1 is the mass on tip of beam and g is gravitational acceleration and its value is 9.8m/s2.
Replacing F net withW M 1in equation (b) will give us the value of W M 1(assuming other factors are
known).
Inserting this value in equation (c) will give us the value of Mass of object.
12) Suggestion to improve this practical,
dy
Using a cantilever beam with initial slope =0 (without any mass) will be good to
dx
improve this practical.
Significance of Experimental modelling,
Major advantage of experimental modeling is it can be used for an unknown process.
Experimental modelling is widely used in control systems and can be considered as base
of control systems.
