Video for Discontinuity Functions: Table for Loads, Shear, and Moment Expressions.

Introduction to Discontinuity functions and the tables for Loads, shear, and Moments. There are 7 cases of forces and moments acting on the beam; each case yields special expressions for W(x), V(x), and M(x).

Timestamps

  • 00:00 Basic loads represented by discontinuity functions.Introduction
  • 01:02 Case 1, case of Moment M0 in the clockwise direction.
  • 04:02 Case 2, case of an upward load.
  • 07:13 Case 3, case of an upward uniform load shifted by a distance a for the W(x) axis.
  • 08:20 Case 4, case of an upward triangular load shifted by a distance a for the W(x) axis.
  • 10:52 Case 5, case of an upward uniform load shifted by a distance a for the W(x) axis, but with limited width. 12:50 Case 6, case of an upward triangular load shifted by a distance a for the W(x) axis, but with limited width.
  • 16:07 Case 7, case of an upward declining triangular load shifted by a distance a for the W(x) axis, but with limited width
