    Statically Indeterminate?

    Christine74 I would treat the upper part of the bar as a rod in pure tension. The lower half is a column in compression with the top free and the bottom fixed. determining buckling requires knowledge of the bar geometry, it is a function of load and geometry. From formulas for Stress and...

    calculating motor power

    I'm attempting to measure the output power of an air motor. I have measured torque in in*lbs, and speed in RPM. Power in Watts should be: Watts = torque * rpm = lb.in * rev/m * 44.25 My calculated numbers seem low. Am I missing something? Thanks
