Standard diagrams for warping torque, bimoment and the St.Venant torsion
The following 6 standard situations are given in the literature (Ref.[2], Ref.[3]).
The value λ is defined as follows :
Mx |
the total torque = Mxp + Mxs |
Mxp |
the torque due to St. Venant |
Mxs |
the warping torque |
Mw |
the bimoment |
It |
the torsional constant |
Cm |
the warping constant |
E |
the modulus of elasticity |
G |
the shear modulus |
