Please fix all errors in my MATLAB code, I have MATLAB BASIC, so it needs to be able to run with that system. The code below has a lot of errors and will not run in my version of MATLAB.
% Define constants
E =10^6; % Modulus of Elasticity in psi
L =10; % Length of the beam in inches
b =4; % Width of the beam in inches
g =10; % Distributed load in lb/in
% Define the range of thickness h
h_values =0.1:0.1:0.5; % Thickness from 0.1 in to 0.5 in
% Initialize arrays to store results
maxDisplacement = zeros(1, length(h_values));
slope = zeros(1, length(h_values));
% Loop over each thickness value
for i =1:length(h_values)
h = h_values(i);
I = GetAreaMomentofInertia(b, h);
% Calculate maximum displacement
maxDisplacement(i)=(g * L^4)/(8* E * I);
% calculate slope at the ends
slope(i)=(g * L^3)/(6* E * I);
end
% Plot maximum displacement as a function of h
figure;
plot(h_values, maxDisplacement, '-o');
xlabel("Thickness (in)");
ylabel('Maximum Displacement (in)');
title('Maximum Displacement vs Thickness');
grid on;
% Plot slope as a function of h
figure;
plot(h_values, slope, '-o');
xlabel('Thickness (in)");
ylabel('Slope (radians)');
title('slope vs Thickness');
grid on;
% Function to calculate the area moment of inertia
function I = GetAreaMomentofInertia(b, h)
I =(b * h^3)/12;
end
Please fix all errors in my MATLAB code, I have
