Heat Transfer and its Mode: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation
Have you ever wondered why a hot cup of tea is spread on a saucer to cool it down, or a cold canned drink outside a refrigerator gets warm up? The answer to these questions …
How can you define any Force in terms of Fundamental Forces?
In nature, there are four fundamental forces: gravitational force, electromagnetic force, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force. But the question comes, “How can we classify any force into these four fundamental types ?”. It gets …
What are Force and Fundamental Forces in nature?
Have you read the concepts of “FORCES” in the schools and colleges and wondered what its deeper essence is?Indeed, with this post, we will see a deeper perspective of the term “FORCES” and fundamental forces …
Important stress-strain curves to know before learning SOM
When we start learning about the structural properties of any material, the first step is to learn the load vs deformation curve of that material specimen. To make this process cross-section free, we study the …
The stress-strain curve of the mild steel
We use mild steel in our day-to-day life. It is essential to know how the metal will behave under loading or stretching. We can plot the load-deformation curve to get this understanding. But instead, We …
What are Static Determinate Trusses?
Static determinate structures are those structures in which we compute axial forces by the application of static equilibrium alone. For plane frame, three such equations are: For a statically determinate: Plane frame, m = 2j …
What is soil structure and What are its types?
Soil structure is a geometrical arrangement of particles in a soil mass. The behavior of soil depends on it. Important types of soil structures The type of soil structure depends on various parameters, but mainly …
What are the basic method of structural analysis ?
A structure means a system of connected parts used to support a load. An elastic body is called a structure when a set of loads are applied the elastic body deforms and also the system …
What is Kinematic Indeterminacy ?
It is the number of independent components of joint displacements with respect to a specified set of axes. Kinematic indeterminacy also refered as degrees of freedom for a structure, is the number of unrestrained component …
