Check Your Understanding

Select the correct option below.

Consider the case where we replace our square cross-section in ANSYS with an I-shaped cross-section that is taller, has a lower cross-sectional area and the same moment of inertia. If we then re-solve the problem in ANSYS, which of the following results would be affected? Select all options that apply.

...

1. Deformed shape of the midline, u_y(x) 

2. Max. bending stress at root
