beam-analysis

Perform engineering analysis on beams with diagrams for shear, moments, angle, and deflection

Usage 💻

Install

pip install beam_analysis

git clone https://github.com/XDwightsBeetsX/beam-analysis

Sample Code

E = 207 * 10**6
L = 1.0
CS = CrossSection(CrossSectionTypes.CIRC, [.01])
B = Beam(L, E, crossSection=CS)

B.addPointLoad(0, 11, 45)
B.addPointLoad(L/2, -20, 45)
B.addPointLoad(L, 11, 45)
B.addDistributedLoad(0, L, -2, 45)

B.addBoundaryCondition(L/2, BoundaryConditionTypes.ANGLE, 0)
B.addBoundaryCondition(L, BoundaryConditionTypes.DEFLECTION, 0)

B.runAnalysis(outputToFile=True)

Mechanical Requirements ⚙️⚠️

• Currently reactions are not solved for...
  • All loads and reactions must be inputted
• Boundary conditions currently required
  • one angle AND one deflection value
  • OR two deflection parameters
• Beam weight is not accounted for by default
  • represent it with a distributed load
