Use Macaulay's Method


𝐸𝐼 (ⅆ^2 𝑦)/(ⅆ𝑥^2 )=𝑅_1 𝑥−𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_1 )−𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_2 )

𝐸𝐼 ⅆ𝑦/ⅆ𝑥=(𝑅_1 𝑥^2)/2+𝐶_1−(𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^2)/2−(𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^2)/2 R₁ = S₁ 1500


Slope
P = Ps 1500
𝐸𝐼𝑦=(𝑅_1 𝑥^3)/3+𝐶_1 𝑥+𝐶_2−(𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^3)/3−(𝑃(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^3)/3 R₁ = D₁ 500
Deflection
P = Pd 500

Boundary Condition:- i) at χ χ = 0, y= 0
ii) at χ χ= L, y= 0

Subtitute value at boundary condition into Deflection Equation to find C₁ and C₂ :-


C₂ is always 0

0=(𝐷_1 𝑥^3)/3+𝐶_1 𝑥+𝐶_2−(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^3)/3−(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^3)/3

(𝐷_1 𝑥^3)/3
13500

(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^3)/3
2679.6875

(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^3)/3
976.5625

C₁ -3281.25
Putting value of C₁ and C₂ into Deflection Equation:-

𝐸𝐼𝑦=(𝐷_1 𝑥^3)/3+𝐶_1 𝑥+𝐶_2−(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^3)/3−(𝑃𝑑(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^3)/3

Putting value of C₁ into Slope Equation:-

𝐸𝐼 ⅆ𝑦/ⅆ𝑥=(𝑆_1 𝑥^2)/2+𝐶_1−(𝑃𝑠(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^2)/2−(𝑃𝑠(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^2)/2

Deflection will be max. at the point where slope dy/dx = 0. Let equation 2 equal to 0.

0=(𝑆_1 𝑥^2)/2+𝐶_1−(𝑃𝑠(𝑥−𝑥_1 )^2)/2−(𝑃𝑠(𝑥−𝑥_2 )^2)/2 let be S₁ = A, Ps = B, C₁ = C

*this section need to calculate manually to get the form of quadratic equation

Then, take the smallest value, put into equation 1
