Question I want to know variation of transverse and normal stress in an assumed section of a beam under an arbitrary loading condition.
Please tell about their max and min values.
Answer Dear Farzaneh,
Variation of normal stress in this condition is linear from zero to a max value. Its zero value is in the Neutral Axis and its max value is in the surface of the beam.
Variation of transverse stress in this condition is reverse to normal one. It Is parabolic from max to zero value. Its zero value is in the surface and its max value is in Neutral Axis of the beam.
