A simple beam ABCD has moment of inertia I near the supports and moment of inertia 2I in the middle region, as shown in the figure. A uniform load of intensity q acts over the entire length of the beam. Determine the equations of the deflection curve for the left-hand half of the beam. Also, find the angle of rotation θA at the left-hand support and the deflection δmax at the midpoint.
