iBeams vs Levers Calculator

iBeams is a tool for structural engineers. The app displays various beam and load configurations along with the corresponding reaction, shear, moment, and deflection diagrams. Load and geometric values can be edited.

The Levers Calculator is a physics/math calculator designed for quick and easy determination of effort force, load force, distance from load force to fulcrum, distance from effort force to fulcrum, or Mechanical Advantage. Features: - Instant calculation. - Results are copyable to other apps. - Formulas included as references. - Supports up to 16 decimal places. - Supports various units for each input. - Works seamlessly on both iPhone and iPad. - Lightweight, compact app optimized for everyday use. - Ad-free and built with privacy in mind. A lever is a simple machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum. Classified into three types based on the location of fulcrum, load, and effort, levers amplify input force to provide a greater output force, creating leverage. The mechanical advantage of a lever is the ratio of the output force to the input force. Classes of levers: 1. Class 1: Fulcrum in the middle - effort on one side, load on the other (e.g., seesaw, crowbar). 2. Class 2: Resistance in the middle - effort on one side, fulcrum on the other (e.g., wheelbarrow, nutcracker). 3. Class 3: Effort in the middle - load on one side, fulcrum on the other (e.g., tweezers, human mandible). Mechanical advantage is a measure of force amplification. It's expressed by the law of the lever, where the moment action on both sides is equal: Fe x De = Fl x Dl Where: - F_e = effort force (N, lb) - F_l = load force (N, lb) - D_l = distance from load force to fulcrum (m, ft) - D_e = distance from effort force to fulcrum (m, ft) The effort force can be calculated using the formula: Fe = Fl x Dl / De Fe = m x g x Dl / De where m = mass (kg) g = acceleration of gravity (9.81 m/s²) Thanks for your support, and please visit nitrio.com for more apps for your iOS devices.
