Verification of Maximum Bending Stress and Maximum Total Deformation

The ANSYS results will be verified by comparing them to the results obtained using Euler-Bernoulli beam theory in the pre-analysis. The ANSYS simulation outputted 4.6352MPa for the maximum bending stress and the calculation in the pre-analysis yielded 4.635 MPa. The ANSYS simulation outputted 0.0051352m for the total deformation of the beam at x=4 while the calculation from the pre-analysis yielded 0.005103m. The ANSYS results very closely match the calculations from the pre-analysis, thus the simulation has been verified.
