Lecture 6 : Simple Bending Theory and Beam Deflection
When a beam is subjected to a bending moment M :
Bending theory relates the moment to the beams curvature, deflection and stress.
Assumptions:
1)
2)
3)
4)
Small deflections
Linear-elastic behaviour
Plane sections remain plane - line ab straight before and after bending
Pure bending - no shear or axial forces - in practice stress and deflections due to
shear and axial forces can be calculated separately and added on using
superposition.

For all beams of these types, the neutral axis is at mid height of the section.
For beams that are not symmetric, the neutral axis position has to be calculated by
considering
the total axial force acting across the section, which is zero when there is pure bending.
