Tutorial Sheet_CE 6040 Finite Element Analysis

Q. No. 1. Using Finite Element Technique, determine displacement at the free end in the cantilever as
shown:

Q. No. 2. Determine nodal displacement and support reaction of the cantilever beam as shown:

Q. No. 3. A thin steel plate of uniform thickness (1"), Young’s modulus of elasticity (30𝑥106 𝑝𝑠𝑖) and
weight density (0.2836 𝑙𝑏⁄𝑖𝑛3 ). In addition to its self weight, the plate is subjected to a point
load of (100𝑙𝑏) at its mid point. Model the plate with two finite elements, and determine the
reaction at the support. Use elimination approach to solve displacement vector.
