Beam stiffening Beam stiffening, splinting, enhancing, reinforcing, repairing, strengthening, bringing in anti-buckling, stopping bending, discouraging wrinkling, bracing, etc.. The beams may be fluid beams, rigid beams, hybrid beams. The beams may be of any shape, size, or material. How humans stiffen beams is the focus of this folder. |

wiki: Oct. 5, 2012 In mechanics, "stiffening" beams brings anti-buckling, anti-wrinkling, desired shaping, reinforcement, repair, strength, enhanced function, extended utility. longer beam life, safety, etc. Stiffening of fluid or rigid beams is used in medical arts, aerospace, aviation, sports, bookbinding, art, architecture, natural plants and trees, construction industry, bridge building[1], and more. Mechanical methods for stiffening include tension stiffening[2], centrifugal stiffening [3], bracing, superstructure bracing, substructure bracing, straightening, strain stiffening, stress stiffening[4], damping vibrations, swelling, pressure increasing, drying, cooling, interior reinforcing, exterior reinforcing, wrapping, surface treating, or combinations of these and other methods. Beams under bending loads or compression invite stiffening to stop buckling or collapse while fulfilling desired functions, purposes, and benefits. |
