2.1.1 Representation of distributed stiffness
It is taken into account by a massless torsion spring whose stiffness is calculated from the results of strength of materials, which assume that any straight section remains flat after deformation. As no external torque is applied during the section, the torsional moment M
t
in the section is constant, as is the unitary torsion angle θ. We have:
