Statically Indeterminate Systems

The document discusses statically indeterminate systems and provides two examples of cantilevered beams to analyze using the Maxwell-Mohr method. The first beam is simply supported and loaded at the free end to determine the deflection at that point. The second beam has a distributed load and the method is used to find the value X1.

Statically indeterminate systems

1 Simplified mechanical model is shown below is a cantilevered beam under load P and
with bending stiffness 𝐸𝐼𝑦 is statically determinate. Determine the deflection of the beam
in the z direction at point ‘B’ (𝑥 = 𝐿) by using Maxwell-Mohr method. (6 points)

Given: 𝑃 = 300 kN 𝐿 = 500 mm; 𝐸𝐼𝑦 = 7.5 ∙ 1011 Nmm2;

Hints:

 The beam is shear rigid


 The resulting displacements are small
 The beam is only loaded in-plane of the drawing and mass of the beam is neglected
2 Given below a sketch of statically indeterminate beam. Determine the value ‘𝑋1 ′ using
Maxwell-Mohr method (6 points)

Given.: 𝑞0 = 30 N/mm; 𝐿 = 500 mm; 𝐸𝐼𝑦 = 7.5 ∙ 1011 Nmm2;


𝑥
𝑞 = 𝑞0 𝐿

Hint: Assume 0-system by removing the support at ‘B’ and 1-system by introducing unit force
without dimension at ‘B’ in the same direction of applied load.
