🟩FEA Friday: Analytical Validation of UDL Load on Cantilever Beam.

Hello,

This is the basic Simulation we did to Validate the deflection values we got for a Cantilever beam where Uniformly Distributed Load is applied on a cantilever beam.

Deflection from the Simulation results: 0.071mm

See the Analytical Calculations below for UDL load on a Cantilever Beam.

  • Uniformly Distributed Load:
  • Load = 1000 N
  • Length = 1000mm
  • Material = Steel
  • Square Cross Section: 100x100mm
  • Young’s Modulus = 2.1 e+11 N_m2
  • Deflection = 0.071 mm


Below are the Calculations.

Can you replicate the same for the point Load?
