Detailed Description

A state of pure bending of an elastic beam in 2D.

Details

This solution describes a 2D slice through an elastic beam of length \(L\) and height \(H\), centered around (0, 0), that is subject to a bending moment \(M=\int T^{xx}y\mathrm{d}y\) (see e.g. [194], Eq. 11.41c for a bending moment in 1D). The beam material is characterized by an isotropic and homogeneous constitutive relation \(Y^{ijkl}\) in the plane-stress approximation (see Elasticity::ConstitutiveRelations::IsotropicHomogeneous). In this scenario, no body-forces \(f_\mathrm{ext}^j\) act on the material, so the Elasticity equations reduce to \(\nabla_i T^{ij}=0\), but the bending moment \(M\) generates the stress

\begin{align} T^{xx} &= \frac{12 M}{H^3} y \\ T^{xy} &= 0 = T^{yy} \text{.} \end{align}

By fixing the rigid-body motions to

\[ \xi^x(0,y)=0 \quad \text{and} \quad \xi^y\left(\pm \frac{L}{2},0\right)=0 \]

we find that this stress is produced by the displacement field

\begin{align} \xi^x&=-\frac{12 M}{EH^3}xy \\ \xi^y&=\frac{6 M}{EH^3}\left(x^2+\nu y^2-\frac{L^2}{4}\right) \end{align}

in terms of the Young's modulus \(E\) and the Poisson ration \(\nu\) of the material. The corresponding strain \(S_{ij}=\partial_{(i}\xi_{j)}\) is

\begin{align} S_{xx} &= -\frac{12 M}{EH^3} y \\ S_{yy} &= \frac{12 M}{EH^3} \nu y \\ S_{xy} &= S_{yx} = 0 \end{align}

and the potential energy stored in the entire infinitesimal slice is

\[ \int_{-L/2}^{L/2} \int_{-H/2}^{H/2} U dy\,dx = \frac{6M^2}{EH^3}L \text{.} \]

Initial value:

{
      "A 2D slice through an elastic beam which is subject to a bending "
      "moment. The bending moment is applied along the length of the beam, "
      "i.e. the x-axis, so that the beam's left and right ends are bent "
      "towards the positive y-axis. It is measured in units of force."}
