Excerpt from Journal of the Franklin Institute, of the State of Pennsylvania, for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts, Vol. 46: Devoted to Mechanical and Physical Science, Civil Engineering, the Arts and Manufactures, and the Recording of American and Other Patented InventionsThe effect of the transverse strain was then considered, and illus tratad by various experiments and models. The strain isa compound ofthe tensile and compressive strain, the one part ofa beam loaded in the middle being compressed, and the other distended, and the beam itself becoming a lever, and acting often with enormous power against its own strength. Hence it became easy to calculate the strength, this being in every case proportional, in the first instance, to the area of the section of fracture, and this original element. Modified by the length and depth of the beam, diminishing in exact proportion to the length, and increasingin proportion to the depth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
