18AE502 – AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES II

[18AE502_Unit2_FA1_ASM]

Question 01 (DE)
Figure 1 and 2 shows the location of applied loads in a channel section. In figure 1
the loacation of load is at the centroid of its cross section and the beam tends to
bending and twist. In figure 2 the load is applied at the shear centre.

This is not actually a question. Instead it is a way to add some instructions, rubric or
other content to the activity. This is similar to the way that labels can be used to add
content to the course page.

Question 02 (MC)
As shown in the figure 1 and 2, if the applied load it transformed from point S to M,
there will not be torsional deformation in the beam. That point is called MC
