INVESTIGATION OF DEFLECTION AND SHEAR FORCES OF SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM USING THEORETICAL NUMERICAL AND SOFTWARE APPROACH
Keywords:
Simply Supported Beam, FEM, ANSYSAbstract
A beam is a key structural member which is widely used in building science as well as different mechanical sector like crane used in industry, loading and unloading of heavy job etc. as such the analysis of beam under loading is important. This paper approaches to if the beam has supported at its two ends and load may be applied anywhere on the beam, the resulting reactions force, deflection, bending moment, shear force can be mathematically estimated using the theory of strength of materials and finite element method(FEM) stiffness matrix is used for validating the software results to the analytical results. Also, aim of this paper is to compare the analytical and mathematical solution with software results. The results may slightly vary with theoretical value and it can be improved by improving quality of mesh.
