Q3. Beam Element with Distributed Load
The bar is subjected to distributed load as shown in the Fig.3, where \( E=200\mathrm{GPa}\) and square cross-section with 0.25 mX 0.25 m .
a) Find solution of the system using FEA modeling of beam for 1 and 3 elements (Hand calculations)
b) Find solution of the system using Ansys Workbench using 5,10,15 elements
c) Compare the displacement and stress results for 5 cases (2 FEA hand solution and 3 Ansys Solutions) and discuss the results.
