(Think a deck of playing cards.) Under the action of a transverse load we see below how the beam deflects in the absence of shear stiffness. Focus, in particular, on the deflection at the right end of ...

This video is an introduction to shear force and bending moment diagrams. What are Shear Forces and Bending Moments? Shear ...

A team from the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), belonging to the ...

The transverse load P will produce a shear force V in the positive y direction on a mathematical cut through the beam at point “a”. This shear force is directly responsible for the shear stress τ on ...
