In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...

The integrations needed to determine beam deflections require the enforcement of the appropriate displacement and rotation boundary conditions (BCs). It is important that we be able to recognize these ...

When a charged object such as a rubber balloon is brought close to a fine stream of a polar liquid, the stream is attracted toward the electrical charge. If the same charged object is brought close to ...

The technical report (“2006 Near Earth Object Survey and Deflection Study”) backing up NASA’s recent summary report to Congress on NEOs is now available on the B612 Foundation website (Note: be ...
