Simply supported beam carries uniformly distributed load shown in the following figure. The deflection, δ, along the beam is governed by the following equation: δ = (5L^4x + 4Lx^3) / (384EI) where: x is the distance from the support A L is the total length of the beam w is the load per unit length E is the Young modulus of the beam I is the moment of inertia of the section of beam. (Hint: W, L, E, and I are constant parameters) Prove that: The maximum deflection is at the mid-span of the beam, i.e. at x = L/2. And the maximum deflection is (384EI / 5L^4).
