Bending Stress

BS 1
BENDING STRESSES IN BEAMS Bending is usually combined with the shearing action. However, to simplify, the effect of shear may be neglected ( this is true when the maximum bending moment is considered---- shear is ZERO) in calculating the stresses due to bending only. Such a theory wherein stresses due to bending alone is considered is known as PURE BENDING or SIMPLE BENDING theory.

BENDING ACTION
Sagging : Fibres below the neutral axis (NA) get stretched [Fibres are under tension] Fibres above the NA get compressed [Fibres are in compression] Hogging -> Vice-versa The trace of this layer on the c/s is called the Neutral Axis. In between there is a fibre or layer which neither undergoes tension nor compression. This layer is called Neutral Layer (stresses are zero).
BS 6
Assumptions made in Pure bending theory 1) The beam is initially straight and every layer is free to expand or contract. 2) The material is homogenous and isotropic. 3) Youngs modulus (E) is same in both tension and compression. 4) Stresses are within the elastic limit. 5) The radius of curvature of the beam is very large in comparison to the depth of the beam.
BS 7
6) A transverse section of the beam which is plane before bending will remain plane even after bending. 7) Stress is purely longitudinal.

DERIVATION OF PURE BENDING EQUATION PART I: Relationship between bending stress and radius of curvature
BS 9
Consider the beam section of length dx subjected to pure bending. After bending the fibre AB is shortened in length, whereas the fibre CD is increased in length. In b/w there is a fibre (EF) which is neither shortened in length nor increased in length (Neutral Layer). Let the radius of the fibre EF be R . Let us select one more fibre GH at a distance of y from the fibre EF as shown in the fig. EF= EF = dx = R d The initial length of fibre GH equals R d After bending the new length of GH equals
BS 10
GlHl = (R+y) d
= R d + y d
Change in length of fibre GH = (R d + y d) - R d = y d Therefore the strain in fibre GH = change in length original length => = y d R d = y R
If is the bending stress and E is the Youngs modulus of the material, then strain = E

y R
=> =
E R
y --------(1)
i.e. bending stress is proportional to distance y, and hence maximum bending stress occurs at the farthest fibre from the neutral axis. Part II : Moment of resistance y da A Consider an elemental area da at a distance y from the neutral axis.

da A
The force on this elemental area = da = E R y da {from (1)}
moment of this force the moment of resistance = about neutral axis. offered Therefore, dM = E R y da y = E R y da

Note: (1) For equilibrium the moment of resistance equals bending moment at that section (2) Neutral axis coincides with the horizontal centroidal axis of the cross section From equation 1 & 2, M INA = E R = y ----BENDING EQUATION.
