Note :-
1) The above equation is the governing differential equation of the beam.
2) we only take the effect of bending moment. The effect of shear on the
deflection
is extremely small and usually neglected.
3) EI is an index which is known as flexural strength of an element.

Area Moment Method (Mohr's Theorem)

Statement [1]

The difference between the slope of any two point is equal to the area of
(M/EI) diagram.

Statement [2]

The difference between the deflection of any two point is equal to the moment
of area of (M/EI) diagram.

Ankit Saxena (saxena01ankit@gmail.com)


Note
1. For the two points, one point should be point of zero slope and other
point should be point of non-zero slope.
2. The point of zero slope is known as reference point and point of non zero
slope is known as origin point.
3. As per statement [2]
Difference b/w deflection of any two point = moment of area of [M/EI] diagram
= A * x of [M/EI] diagram
x = it is the distance b/w the centroid of area and the point of non zero slope point
or origin point.

Castigliano's Theorem
If a structure is subjected to a number of external loads (or couples), the partial
derivative of the total strain energy with respect with respect to any load (or
couple) provides the deflection in the direction of that load (or couple).

introduce a dummy point load at that point and do complete
the calculation.
2. In the final step, put the dummy load value equal to the zero.

SPRING

Ankit Saxena (saxena01ankit@gmail.com)


Spring
• Spring is a elastic member which deflect under the action of external load or
couple.
• Due to deflection, spring store the energy and at the required time released
the energy.

Note

 Stiffness or spring constant : It is defined as the force required per unit


deflection.

 Solid length : It is the length of a spring in the fully compressed state when
the coils touch each other.
Ankit Saxena (saxena01ankit@gmail.com)
Helical Spring
"A helical spring is a piece of wire coil in the form of helix."
Helix- when a right angle triangle is wrapped around the circumference of a cylinder
through its base, a helix profile is generated.

Helix angle - The angle made by plane of coil with the horizontal plane which
is perpendicular to the axis of the spring is known as helix angle.

d = wire diameter (mm)

R = mean coil radius (mm)

D = mean coil diameter (mm)

Closed coil helical spring
1. The helix angle is very small.

2. The coils may be assumed to be in a horizontal plane.

3. These spring may be acted upon by axial load or axial toque.

4. Due to axial load, there is axial extension may take place in a spring.

5. Due to axial torque, there is a change in the radius of curvature of the


spring coils.

Note :- Due to axial torque, there is an angular rotation of the free end and
the
action is known as wind-up.

A close-coiled helical spring is required to absorb 2.25*103 joules of
energy. Determine the diameter of the wire, the mean diameter of the spring and the
number of coils necessary if
1. The maximum stress is not to exceed 400 MN/m2
2. The maximum compression of the spring is limited to 250 mm
3. the mean diameter of the spring can be assumed to be eight times that of the
wire
How would the answers change if appropriate Wahl factors are
introduced? For spring material G = 70 GN/m2.

Q. Show that the ratio of extension per unit axial load to angular rotation per unit
axial torque of a close-coiled helical spring is directly proportional to the square of
the mean diameter, and hence that the constant of proportionality is 1/4 *(1 + ν).

If Poisson's ratio ν = 0.3, determine the angular rotation of a close-coiled helical


spring of mean diameter 80 mm when subjected to a torque of 3 N m, given that
the spring extends 150 mm under an axial load of 250 N.

Springs in Series
1. When two springs of different stiffness are joined end to end, they are said
to be connected in series.

2. For spring in series, the load is the same for both the springs whereas the
deflection is the sum of deflection of each.
