A structure is a set of elements of an object that allow it to maintain the shape and without deforming when forces act on it there are two types of structures.
A structure is a set
of elements of an
object that allow it to
maintains its shape
and size without
defaming when
forces act on it.
Types of structures
Naturals:they are
structures made by
nature,for example the
queleto of the animals,
etc...
Arti-fical:structures
which are all
manmate,for example a
house, etc...
Elements of a structure
.Beam or
catiliver
.Column
.Brace
.Square
It is very
important that
the structures
are stable and
stability
Mechanisms
A machanisms
is an element
that serves to
facilitate
human work.A
machine is
made up of
several
mechanisms.
.The wedge:is a simple
machine that is used to
separarte bodies. .Inclinated
plane: allows you to raise or
lower objects with less
efforts. .The screw: allows
man to lift loads continuously
with little effort. .The lathe:
consists of a cylinder that
rotates by means of a crank.
.The pulley: is a grooved wheel
through which we pass a
rope.
Motion transmission
mechanisms
The machanisms of
transmission of
movement are
elements that
transmit the
movement without
transforming.We
found 3 types:The
friction wheels,The
gears or sprockets
and the pulley-belt
assembly.
Multiplication and reduction of speed
Depending on the
size of the wheels
or gears we will have
mechanisms that
multiply, maintain
constant or reduce
speed.
Loads and efforts
As we have
commented the
structures are
subject to
external forces
that we will call
charges.There is
2 types:
.Stactic
load:Are those
that act
permanently on
a structure.
.Dynamic loads: these are those that do
not act in a constant way on the
structures.There is 5
types:traction,compression,bendinng,torsion
and
shearing
or
cutting.
