leikkausvirtatekniikka
Leikkausvirtatekniikka, often translated as shear flow technique, is a structural analysis method used primarily in mechanical engineering to determine the stresses and deformations within a structural member subjected to torsion or bending. It is particularly useful for analyzing thin-walled structures where shear stresses are significant. The technique is based on the principle of equilibrium, where the internal shear forces within the material must balance any external forces applied to the structure.
The core idea behind leikkausvirtatekniikka is to consider the distribution of shear stress across a cross-section
Leikkausvirtatekniikka is widely applied in the design of aircraft wings, automotive chassis, and bridge components, where
