2D Beam: Numerical Results
The following video shows how to plot the deformed shape and use it to check if the boundary conditions (displacement constraints and point load) have been applied correctly.
As we saw in the previous video, the maximum deformation is 0.0178". From this, we can calculate the normalized maximum deformation which, if you recall, is defined as follows:
The normalized maximum deformation comes out to be 0.0066. This value needs to be compared with the value predicted by Euler-Bernoulli beam theory.
