At any point along the beam, there is a reaction force and moment (from contact with material to the left of x-section) to maintain static equilibrium.

DaVinci-1493 "Of bending of the springs: If a straight spring is bent, it is necessary that its convex part become thinner and its concave part, thicker. This modification is pyramidal, and consequently, there will never be a change in the middle of the spring. You shall discover, if you consider all of the aforementioned modifications, that by taking part 'ab' in the middle of its length and then bending the spring in a way that the two parallel lines, 'a' and 'b' touch a the bottom, the distance between the parallel lines has grown as much at the top as it has diminished at the bottom. Therefore, the center of its height has become much like a balance for the sides. And the ends of those lines draw as close at the bottom as much as they draw away at the top. From this you will understand why the center of the height of the parallels never increases in 'ab' nor diminishes in the bent spring at 'co.'
How Does the Force Deform the Beam?
Galileo-1638 Incorrectly claimed that the root of beam was in tension.
(give him a break-Newton was born a year after he died)

Consider a Free-Free Beam Loaded by a Moment
MM
neutral surface
For long, thin beams loaded by a transverse force, deformation is predominately due to internal moment as compared to internal force. (Euler-Bernoulli Beam Assumption)
The upper portion is in compression.The lower portion is in tension.
‘neutral surface’ does not change in length

Transverse Force Causes Axial Deformation

Stress is a Quantitative Measure of Load Acting on a Material
In general stress is a tensor quantity-> represented by a matrix of scalars

Strain Gages Measure Axial Strain
6.4 x 4.3 mm
Strain gages must be well attached to the surface of a material so that it deforms as the material deforms.
The resistance of gage changes as it stretches or compresses.
![Page 17: Beams and Strain Gages. Cantilever Beam One End Fixed, One End Free](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cbb5503460f949831f8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Strain is Proportional to the Change of Resistance of the Gage
R is nominal resistanceGF is gage factor-a calibration constant. Ours have GF = 2.1
Change in resistance is very small-need a circuit to measure.
