Abstract The evaluation of the deflection in beams is an indispensable step of the structural design. Currently, many standard codes adopt the Branson’s model. However, the Branson’s model ...

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 ...

In Boulder, Colo. last week, Roger M. Gallet, a physicist for the National Bureau of Standards, exuberantly described the most dramatic experiment of his career. Said he: “It was like this: whop and ...

The construction of concrete-filled steel tube tied-arch bridges typically employs the “beam first and arch later” methodology. In this approach, tie beams are initially constructed on temporary ...

The purpose of the Deflection Peers and Navigators ECHO is to train and connect deflection team members who outreach, engage, and navigate services for participants in Oregon’s deflection programs.

Optical beam deflection is a popular method to measure the deformation of micromechanical devices. As it measures mostly a local slope, its sensitivity depends on the location and size of the optical ...

NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission struck the 160-m moonlet asteroid Dimorphos (shown) in September 2022, changing its orbital period but generating a trail of debris called a surface ...

While Cixin Liu’s The Three-Body Problem is one of my favorite science fiction books, it never seemed like something that should or even could be adapted into something like a movie or TV show. But ...

The Netflix sci-fi adaptation has done its physics homework, even if it sometimes falls short on the humanities. By James Poniewozik The aliens who menace humankind in Netflix’s “3 Body Problem” ...
