Answer without code. Full steps and answers please.
Question 2(20pts)-A reinforced concrete beam (L=5m,E=30GPa) is subjected to a distributed
triangular load and a moment in the centre. The beam is supported, so you know that the displacement
at x=0 and x=L is 0.
The beam is of unusual shape, such that the moment of inertia varies with a function of x with the
following equation:
I(x)=I0(1+xL)
I0=2109mm4
Where I0 is the moment of inertia when x=0.
The differential equation that allows us to get the deflection is as follows, and you get the equation for
the internal bending moment as a function of x(M(x)) :
d2ydx2=M(x)EI(x)
M(x)=wmax3L2(L2x-x3)+M0
Find the solution of the differential equation (deflection) with:
The shooting method with a x=0.1m. Use Euler's method with the initial assumptions (0)=0.005
and (0)=-0.005. Use linear interpolation to get the correct value of (0) from both assumptions, given
that y(L)=0. Then, plot the solution for the interpolated value of (0).
