Question 1
A cantilever beam of length L is loaded with a force P at the free end. Using Timoshenko Beam Theory, derive the deflection equation.
💡 Hint: Don't forget to consider both moments and shear at the fixed end.
Question 2
Compare the deflection of a cantilever beam from both TBT and EBT when subjected to the same load, and determine the conditions under which each theory applies.
💡 Hint: Use a diagram to illustrate how loads affect C and D in the two theories.
