Homework Statement
The calculation for the maximum bending moment is to be verified
experimentally using a strain gauge bonded to the outer surface of the
beam, at the point where the maximum bending moment occurs.
Derive an equation which could be used to calculate the bending
moment from the measured strain value. State the meaning of all
symbols used in your equation.
Homework Equations
M / I = σ / y = E / R
Stress = Force / Area = F/A
strain = Change in Length / Original Length
1 / R = M / EI
can anyone provide some guidance?
