Answer:
Transverse shear stress formula
Explanation:
Transverse shear stress also known as the beam shear, is the shear stress due to bending of a beam.
Generally, when a beam is made to undergo a non-uniform bending, both bending moment (I) and a shear force (V) acts on its cross section or width (t).
Transverse shear stress formula is used to determine the shear stress at point P over the section supporting a downward shear force in the -y direction.
Mathematically, the transverse shear stress is given by the formula below;
[tex]T' = \frac{VQ}{It}[/tex]
Also note, T' is pronounced as tau.
Where;
V is the total shear force with the unit, Newton (N).
I is the Moment of Inertia of the entire cross sectional area with the unit, meters square (m²).
t is the thickness or width of cross sectional area of the material perpendicular to the shear with the unit centimeters (cm).
Q is the statical moment of area.
Mathematically, Q is given by the formula;
[tex]Q = y'P^{*} = ∑y'P^{*}[/tex]
Where [tex]P^{*}[/tex] is the section supporting a downward shear force in the y' direction.
