Exercises
Exercise 1: Distributed Load
Using ANSYS, find the deformation and maximum bending stress of the beam when the load is applied as a distributed load. The 8 kN load is applied uniformly across the span of the beam. Thus, the line force is 8kN/4m=2kN/m.
Hint: A distributed load of 8kN applied over 4m yields a line force of 2kN/m. The following small image may lead you in the right direction

Exercise 2: Axial Load
In ANSYS, find the deformation and the stress of the beam when the load is applied axially instead of transversely.
