Beam Bending Simulation
Eberhard Bamberg, MIT, 2001
Within the MIT iCampus project, we use it as a tool to create online simulations
of material taught in Mechanics and Materials I, an introductory course
in Mechancical Engineering at MIT. One example of such a simulation
is the beam bending applet (requires
1.30 Java-plugin), where up to two beams can be analyzed by varying
the cross section, material, boundary condition, and loading condition.
