Step 4: Plot σ_x vs. r_i: Take 2

Vectorize σ_x Calculation

Again, we pick MATLAB's brain on vectorization:

...

How do your values of sigma_x correspond to the values from beam2.m? Mine are the same ... yipppee!

Plot σ_x vs. r_i: Take 2

Recycle the plot section from our program in Step 3. Copy this section and append it to your current program:

...

figure(1); %Create figure #1
clf; %Clear current figure
h=plot(,,'');
set(gca,'Box','on','LineWidth',2,...
'FontName','Helvetica',...
'FontSize',14);
%Set axis properties
set(h,'LineWidth',2);
%Set linewidth for curve
xlabel('');
ylabel('');
title('');
axis square; %Make axis box square

Go to Step 5: Plot σ_x σx vs. r_i, ri (Take 3: File Input/Output)
