Question 1 Consider a cantilever beam subjected to external load of 2X kNm-- (x = last digit of your ID no) as shown in Figure 1. The thickness of the beam is 0.015 m. The modulus elasticity of the beam is 2.05x108 kN m-2 and the Poisson's ratio is 0.3. a) Determine the displacement at the centre of the beam using four-node. b) Validate your manual calculation with any Finite Element Program. 4.5 m K 0.5 m 2x kNm-1 Figure 1: Cantilever beam subjected to vertical load at the end of the beam
