Review of Simple Beam Theory
Readings:
T&G 120-125
Assumptions:
1. Geometry
3. Deformation
Figure 13.3 Representation of deformation of cross-section of a beam
o is at midplane
undeformed state (small letters)
define: w = deflection of midplane (function of x only)
Now consider the stress-strain equations (for the time being consider
isotropic…extend this to orthotropic later)
σ xx
ε xx = (13 - 4)
E
ν σ xx
ε yy = − <-- small inconsistency with previous
E
ν σ xx
ε zz = − <-- small inconsistency with previous
E
2 (1 + ν )
ε xy = σ xy = 0
E
2 (1 + ν )
ε yz = σ yz = 0
E
2 (1 + ν )
ε zx = σ zx <-- inconsistency again!
E
We get around these inconsistencies by saying that εyy, εzz, εxz are
very small but not quite zero. This is an approximation. We will
evaluate these later on.

4. Equilibrium Equations
Assumptions:
a) no body forces
b) equilibrium in y-direction is “ignored”
c) x, z equilibrium are satisfied in an average sense
So:
∂ σ xx ∂ σ xz
+ = 0 (13 - 5)
∂x ∂z
0 = 0 (y -equilibrium)
∂ σ xz ∂ σ zz
+ = 0 (13 - 6)
∂x ∂z
Note, average equilibrium equations:
∫∫ [ Eq. (13 − 6) ] dy dz ⇒ dS = p (13 - 6a)

Notes:
• σxx is linear through thickness and zero at midpoint
• σxz has parabolic distribution through thickness with
maximum at midpoint
• Usually σxx >> σzz
Solution Procedure
1. Draw free body diagram
2. Calculate reactions
3. Obtain shear via (13 - 6a) and then σxz via (13 - 13)
4. Obtain moment via (13 - 5a) and then σxx via (13 - 12) and
deflection via (13 - 11)
NOTE: steps 2 through 4 must be solved
simultaneously if loading is indeterminate
Notes:
• Same formulation for orthotropic material except
¾ Use EL
¾ Assumptions on εαβ may get worse
• Can also be solved via stress function approach
