Visualisation of the Response of a Cantilever Beam under a Concentrated Load
نویسندگان
چکیده
Current numerical methods have slow dynamic visualisation capability, which is usually separate from the calculation phase. This paper investigates whether an analogue virtual reality (VR) model of a structure can integrate calculation and visual representation. The paper shows how the user can interact with a VR analogue model of a cantilever beam, move a concentrated load along the length of the beam, change the value of the force, and visualise deflection of the beam using the analytical solution of the problem.

متن کاملDeflection of a hyperbolic shear deformable microbeam under a concentrated load
Deflection analysis of a simply supported microbeam subjected to a concentrated load at the middle is investigated on the basis of a shear deformable beam theory and non-classical theory. Effects of shear deformation and small size are taken into consideration by hyperbolic shear deformable beam theory and modified strain gradient theory, respectively. The governing differential equations and c...
