Motivation
As part of the work on the linear elasticity solver, I have implemented a simple 1D beam example using a cantilever beam.
The corresponding implementation is available in the following pull request:
I think this would also be a good opportunity to create a tutorial on the FEAScript website explaining how to solve a simple beam problem with FEAScript.
Proposed Tutorial
The tutorial would include:
- A brief introduction to the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation.
- Definition of the cantilever beam problem.
- Solving the problem with FEAScript.
- Visualization of the displacement results.
- Comparison with the analytical solution.
Notes
This tutorial depends on the beam implementation being merged into FEAScript-core first. Once the implementation is accepted, I can prepare the documentation and submit a pull request for the website.
I expect this tutorial to serve as the first structural mechanics example in the documentation and as a foundation for future tutorials covering topics such as truss, frame, and linear elasticity analysis.
