The Centre of Twist or the Centre of Flexure?

ZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, 1987
In the present paper the author has derived the conjecture that the centre of twist is the centre of flexure. The work is based on the Saint Venant flexure theory. The principle of superposition has been used to prove the said conjecture. Problems with centre of twist and torsion by surface traction have been discussed to arrive at the conclusion ...

The Flexural Centre or Centre of Shear

The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1954
In view of the recent notes in this Journal by Professors Jacobs and Duncan, it may be of interest to give some additional references to investigations of the flexural centre of beams, which otherwise might be overlooked, and to add some remarks which seem to have escaped the attention of previous writers.Although the earliest investigation seems to ...

Centres de gravité, centres d’attraction

2018
Cet article vise à identifier les principaux centres de gravité du Cousin Pons et à comprendre leur force d’attraction : une façon d’examiner ce qu’accorde Balzac à ses créatures.

The centre of a sloop [PDF]

open access: possibleAustralas. J Comb., 2020
Summary: Every Steiner triple systems can be co-ordinatised in terms of a commutative loop, called a sloop. Let \((T,\circ)\) be such a sloop. The set of all elements \(a\in T\) such that, for all \(x,y\in T\), \(a\circ(x\circ y)=(a\circ x)\circ y\) is called the centre of \(T\). We prove that a given element \(a\) belongs to the centre of \(T\) if and

The Flexural Centre or Centre of Shear

The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1953
This paper reviews work on the flexural centre of elastic cantilever beams and contains a number of hitherto unpublished results, including a formula giving the position of the flexural centre in terms of the Prandtl torsional stress function.The appearance of the note by Jacobs has prompted the preparation of a review of this subject which is all the ...
