Solid Mechanics & Stress
Beams, deflection, stress, strain, and how structures carry load.
Available
Beam Deflection
Build any straight beam from fixed supports, pins, rollers, and hinges, load it, and get the reactions and the normal force, shear force, bending moment, slope, and deflection diagrams.

Truss Analysis
Build a plane truss from joints, members, supports, and loads, and get every member force, the reactions, and the joint displacements, with worked solutions by the method of joints, the method of sections, and the unit-load method.

Beam Buckling
Build a compressed member from supports, joints, springs, and axial and lateral loads, and find its critical buckling load, mode shapes, effective length, and second-order behaviour, with stability checks and a worked solution of the buckling equation.
