Take moment about B is Equal to zero.
∑MB=0RAL+M0=0RAL=−M0RA=−M0L
Summation of forces along vertical direction is Equal to zero.
∑Fy=0RB−M0L=0RB=M0L
Calculate the shear force as shown below.
Shear force at A is SF@ A=−M0L.
Shear force at B is SF@ B=−M0L+M0L=0
Calculate the bending moment as shown below.
Bending moment at A is BM@ A=M0.
Bending moment at B is BM@ B=M0−M0L×L=0
Sketch the shear force and bending moment diagram as shown in Figure 1.
Refer to Figure 1.
Maximum shear force V=−M0L.
Maximum bending moment Mmax=M0.
Bending moment at a distance v from B M=M0Lv
Calculate the strain energy due to bending (U1) as shown below.
U1=∫baM22EIdv
Substitute M=M0Lv for M and apply the limits.
U1=∫L0(M0Lv)22EIdv=12EI∫L0M20v2L2dv=M202EIL2(v33)L0=M206EIL2×L3
=M20L6EI
Substitute bd312 for I.
U1=M20L6E(bd312)=2M20Lbd3E
Calculate the shear stress (τxy) as shown below.
τxy=32VA(1−y2c2)
Calculate the strain energy density (u) as shown below.
u=τ2xy2G
Here, G is the modulus of rigidity.
Substitute 32VA(1−y2c2) for τxy.
u=(32VA(1−y2c2))22G=9V28GA2(1+y4c4−2y2c2)
Substitute bd for A.
u=9V28G(bd)2(1+y4c4−2y2c2)=9V28Gb2d2(1+y4c4−2y2c2)
The value of v=bdy.
Differentiate both sides of the Equation as shown below.
dv=bdy dx
Calculate the strain energy due to shear as shown below.
U2=∫u dv
Substitute 9V28Gb2d2(1+y4c4−2y2c2) for u, bdy dx for dv, and apply the limits.
U2=L∫0∫c−c9V28Gb2d2(1+y4c4−2y2c2)bdy dx=9V28Gbd2L∫0∫c−c(1+y4c4−2y2c2)dy dx=9V28Gbd2L∫0(y+y55c4−2y33c2)c−cdx=9V28Gbd2{(c+c55c4−2c33c2)−((−c)+(−c)55c4−2(−c)33c2)}(x)L0
=9V28Gbd2{c+c5−2c3+c+c5−2c3}L=9V2cL8Gbd2×(15+3−10+15+3−10)15=9V2cL8Gbd2×1615=6V2cL5Gbd2
Substitute −M0L for V and d2 for c.
U2=6(−M0L)2(d2)L5Gbd2=3M205GbdL
Calculate the total strain energy as shown below.
U=U1+U2
Substitute 2M20Lbd3E for U1 and 3M205GbdL for U2.
U=2M20Lbd3E+3M205GbdL=2M20LEbd3(1+3Ed210GL2)
Hence, the strain energy of the prismatic beam AB is U=2M20LEbd3{1+3Ed210GL2}_.
