transverse load
cross-bending load

In the absence of a transverse load, , we have the free vibration equation.

A beam deforms and stresses develop inside it when a transverse load is applied on it.

If a distributed transverse load is applied to the plate, the governing equation is .

The yarns offer great regularity and increased strength, while their round yarn cross-section ensures limited deformation under transverse load.

A Warren girder body construction with welded, stressed steel skin was used on the sides of the locomotive which supported the transverse load of the main engine entirely.

One example is a horizontal wood beam with non-square rectangular cross-section that is bent by a transverse load that is neither vertical nor horizontal.

Though this could be considered to include overall transverse loads (from side to side within the ship), generally it is applied to longitudinal loads (from end to end) only.

It was pioneering experimental research into the behaviour of bolted joints under transverse loads, conducted by German engineer Gerhard Junker in the late 1960s which underpins modern theories on self-loosening behaviour.

Interlocking chain actuators have the advantages over single-chain actuators of improved resistance to buckling and that the actuating member does not require lateral restraint at its leading end in order to resist a modicum of transverse loads on any edge of the member.

As a result of the limited ability to handle transverse loads with brick, chimneys in houses were often built in a "stack", with a fireplace on each floor of the house sharing a single chimney, often with such a stack at the front and back of the house.

Due to high longitudinal and transverse loads acting over the bridge and to accommodate movements between the superstructure and substructure, it has bearings weighing up to 20t each, capable of bearing vertical loads up to 96,000 kN in a longitudinal direction and up to 40,000 kN in transverse direction.
