Introduction
When forces are applied over a region whose dimensions are not negligible compared with other pertinent di li ibl d ih h i dimensions, we must i account for the actual manner in which the force is distributed by summing up the effects of the distributed force over the entire region region. For this purpose, we need to know the intensity of the force at any location and we will use the integration to find their total effects. g

Center of Mass

CG: point where the resultant gravitational force W acts CM: point at which the total mass is visually concentrated

Location of the CG and CM are found by the principle of moment sum of the moments = moment of the sum

Theorem of Pappus

Engineering Mechanics 3(3-0), AIT-UG (Sept2011)

Theorem of Pappus

Several practical objects have their surface or volume created by revolving the planar curve or the planar area about the nonintersecting line in its plane. Pappus theorem is used to determine the area or volume of the revolved object. This is done by dividing the object into infinitesimal circular-arc strips along the axis of revolution. Then the total area or volume may b d be determined from integrating the infinitesimal area or i df i i h i fi i i l volume of these strips.

Variation of shear and bending moment along beam may be plotted. Determine reactions at supports.

Cut beam at C and consider member AC,

V = + P 2 M = + Px 2
Cut beam at E and consider member EB,

V = P 2 M = + P(L x) 2
For a beam subjected to concentrated loads, shear is constant between loading p g points and moment varies linearly.
