Material Laws
The constitutive relations for the material of the beam should reflect the assumption that
the extension and contraction of longitudinal fibers are the dominant deformations. This
is equivalent to assuming that the material is rigid in the z direction. In terms of fibers
being deformed in the longitudinal
(
x
)
direction, this rigidity means that there will be no
contribution to the longitudinal strain
x by stresses in the z direction. Thus,
x of Eq. (1.32)
reduces to
x = x νσ y )/
E . Since the loading is in the xz plane, it is reasonable to assume
that
σ y =
0. Thus,
x = σ x /
E or
σ x =

If shear deformation effects are to be taken into account, the constitutive equation relating
the shear strain and the net internal shear force is needed. Hooke's law for shear is
τ xz =
τ =
= τ average A as a stress-force relationship where V is the shear force
and A is the cross-sectional area. If

then select
, where k s is a dimensionless shear form or shear stiffness factor that
depends on the cross-sectional shape. Later we will discuss techniques for finding k s . The
reciprocal of k s is the shear correction factor that is often tabulated in handbooks of formulas
for stress analysis. The desired material law relationship becomes
