Example: First Finite Element Analysis in SolidWorks Test the Finite Element Method using the simply supported beam shown in the figure below. Compute the maximum displacement of the beam. Compare the FEA result with the exact solution. Assume a tubular cross-section (outer diameter 1.9 in, inner diameter 1.61 in) and let E=30,000 ksi. 10 lb/ft 15
