Area Moment of Inertia - Brain Waves

So what's an area moment of inertia? It's just a number that described the portion of the stiffness of a beam due to its cross-sectional shape. I show how rotating a rectangle 90 degrees changed its area moment of inertia and I do a simple experiment. Warning: Professor trying to walk on a narrow beam.

Stiffness due to geometry! That short sentence changed everything!

finally i found a video that talks about what it is....a lot of people teach how to calculate it but not what physical meaning of you a lot

That’s the best example of demonstrating the moment of inertia! Helped me a lot in understanding. Loved the fact that you showed the difference in calculation and real life.

Soooo clear. I love your explanation, my professor couldn't explained to me that simple concept. Muchas gracias.

Hi sir, greetings from a student in India! Your videos are brilliant and really really helpful, thank you so much! This channel deserves to be a lot more popular 😊

[hilalahmad]

Finally in the last year of my civil engineering degree, I got the concept.... Thank you sir..

[abrahamprashathapt]

Hi Am from Sri Lanka & thank you very much for your service for an engineering student like me. your explanations are really simple instead of being too complicated. I keep watching you and learning from you instead of attending lectures.

after 4 years of mechanical engineering, finally i understood the concept of ( capital i in beam equation ) thank you so much, you don't know how much difference that made in my life . please keep sharing you superior knowledge.

Great Video. I’ve wondered about this exact example for years. Thanks.

[VikrantSrivastavaMaven]

I really really wish that you would continue making videos...Everyone can understand the theory, but the practical demonstration makes sure everyone understands and remembers WHEN and HOW to make use of it!

[ronaktiwari]

Possibly the best explanation on Area Moment of Inertia!...😍😍😍
Walking on that beam was a bit scary! 😂😂😂

[anchitariv]

Finally!!! A video which explains Inertia in SOM

[aravindr]

This is the only video that made me understand the concept...Subscribed....Hope to learn

[MuhammadIrshad]

I was looking for such a brief explanation...that's too good explanation .

[gagankataria]

Great demonstration. And the way you explain theory is very detailed and easy to understand. Keep doing the good work!!!

[roboticsresources]

Crystal clear explanation with practical examples

[DjSpiritQuest]

Wow. That was a revelation for me. Thank you for sharing that with us.

[gauravkotkar]

Superb ! Like due to practical implementation shown here.

Thank you for this professor. I do have to comment that there are times you MUST absolutely fight tradition. If people didn't fight tradition, slavery and women not allowed to vote may still have continued. As such, not calling them "two by fours" is just one step in the correct direction. Metric system is where it's at.

Greetings from South Africa. Thank you for the brilliant explanations. I can tell that you have great passion for what you do.
