Lecture

Composite Beams: Stresses and Neutral Axis

Description

This lecture covers the bending formula for composite beams, expressing constraints in different layers, and understanding the distribution of stresses and strains in composite beams. It explains the concept of the neutral axis, the calculation of normal stresses, and the link between bending moment and stresses. Through examples, it demonstrates how to find the position of the neutral axis, maximize the bending moment, and calculate the maximum stress in composite beams.
