moment of stiffness
1Stiffness — is the resistance of an elastic body to deformation by an applied force. It is an extensive material property.DefinitionThe stiffness, k , of a body is a measure of the resistance offered by an elastic body to deformation (bending, stretching or… …
2Moment distribution method — The moment distribution method (not to be confused with moment redistribution) is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal.[1] The method only …
3Bending stiffness — The bending stiffness E I of a beam (or a plate) relates the applied bending moment to the resulting deflection of the beam. It is the product of the elastic modulus E of the beam material and the area moment of inertia I of the beam cross… …
4inertia, moment of — Quantitative measure of the rotational inertia of a body. As a rotating body spins about an external or internal axis (either fixed or unfixed), it opposes any change in the body s speed of rotation that may be caused by a torque. It is defined… …
5roll stiffness — The turning moment or torque that the suspension makes when the body rolls and the suspension tries to pull the body back to its normal upright position. It is usually measured in lb ft/degree of roll. When the springs are stiffer or when the… …
6Structural engineering — is a field of engineering dealing with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering is usually considered a speciality within civil engineering, but it can also be studied in its own right. [cite… …
7Flight dynamics — is the science of air and space vehicle orientation and control in three dimensions. The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle s center of mass, known as pitch , roll and yaw… …
8Neuromechanical adaptations to pregnancy — refers to the change in gait, postural parameters, as well as sensory feedback, due to the numerous anatomical, physiological, and hormonal changes women experience during pregnancy. Such changes increase their risk for musculoskeletal disorders… …
9Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics — A computer generated, simplified model of bike and rider demonstrating an uncontrolled right turn. An …
10Vibration — For the soul music group, see The Vibrations. For the machining context, see Machining vibrations. For the albums, see Vibrations (Roy Ayers album) and Vibrations (The Three Sounds album). Classical mechanics …
