This app helps engineering and architecture students and teachers visualize and calculate the effects of loads on beams. It offers interactive bending moment and shear stress diagrams, allowing users to apply forces and moments for instant results and simple beam reactions.
0.4.1
July 22, 2021
Updated for iOS 12.3 and above.
Forces is designed to help engineering and architecture students and teachers learn how to interpret and represent the effects of different kinds of loads on beams, providing interactive diagrams and instant calculations.
Users can apply both punctual (concentrated) forces and distributed forces, as well as moments, to the beam to see their effects on bending moment and shear stress diagrams.
Yes, Forces supports both the US System (using pounds and feet) and the Metric System (using Newtons and meters) for calculations.
The beam's length can be adapted by swiping with two fingers on the screen, allowing for real calculations based on user-defined dimensions.
Forces currently has a rating of 2.0 stars based on 4 user ratings.
Forces is available for a one-time purchase of $1.99.
Forces is supported on iPhones, iPads, and iPods.
The latest version of Forces is 0.4.1, which was last updated on July 22, 2021. Previous updates introduced features like shear stress diagrams and language support.
