THE ANALYTICAL AND NUMERICAL STUDY
OF DISPLACEMENTS FOR AN ARTICULATED BEAM
In this paper had realized an analytical and numerical study to
determine the displacements and stresses for an articulated square beam
loaded to bending. To realize this study had considered the following two
cases: a) the beam is continuous and b) the beam has a joint in the middle. For
numerical analysis had used the ANSYS 12.1 (for static and dynamic analysis)
and RDM software and for analytical study had used the relations from
literature.
