Consider the beam shown in the figure below. Using MATLAB,
a) Find the reactions RA, RB
b) Find the bending stress σx at point O
c) Plot the variation of σx at point O as the inner radius of the tube is varied in the range 0.5 cm < ri < 1.5 cm
This tutorial uses MATLAB version 7.1.
The MATLAB solution is divided into the following steps:
