Fascinating question. So would 1 year of prereqs and 2 years of MSMEng, be better than X years of BMEng?
OK, your prereqs will skip all the lab stuff, which is where my brain absorbed the theory. But I see that labs are of the Lego level now, when we used to use steam engines. So maybe missing...
Try setting the friction very low, but not zero. I assume you are using View, have you completed the Latch tutorial? Oh, and can you post the exact error message?
https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2024/oct/16/where-climate-change-poses-the-most-and-least-risk/ is it really climate change or is it more people living in flood plains and tornado alley? And specifically where the couple lives, yes the coastline is sinking for well understood reasons that have...

I think you picked the wrong forum, we have both matlab and abaqus forums.

So my interpretation is that a causal line is a plot of a selected property at a particular point (?) along the beam, as a function of the location of the force applied to the beam. The ? is because I would have thought knowing the max bending moment anywhere along the beam is more useful...
I'm guessing the 2.1.4 question is talking about the influence line as a truck drives across the bridge. But that is a guess.

Ah the one with the green dashes - sort of partly complete free body diagrams? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram
In your question where is the force applied?

causal lines is not a term I've come across. Can you give an example?

...and what is your progress so far? Why is this not covered in your lectures and textbooks? Since no loads are shown I suspect you are after influence diagrams, but I'm not sure.
I'd start by sketching out a shear force and bending moment diagram to get a few clues

We don't do your homework. Also remarkably inane thread title.

Try playing a bit of white noise or whatever. Noise cancellation is not perfect and you are hearing what is left, which can be rather odd in terms of both amplitude and phase. Conjecture: Also, the bone conduction path still works, so your ear is trying to figure out why the bone says there is...
Cost of hydrogen storage. Ouchy. Not helped because if you are storing energy for a once per year event, you get to amortize the cost of storage on that one event for the year.

'Lightning' Ben Franklin demonstrated one of these way back when. This startup thinks they might have some uses, benefit in particular is that they don't need much copper or rare earths.

Octave works fine with FEA. I don't use toolboxes in general for that. Typically I use it to modify input text files in response to output files from previous runs, ie optimisation type problems.
If the high price of Matlab puts you off, what about the price of the FEA?
If you are just...
Stress_Eng - yes, that is the question and when I get my script working, I'll be able to answer it. The problem with looking at SAE style leaf springs is that they are either multileaf or non constant thickness, rather than simple cantilevered uniform beams like this one, and in reality they...

But that's small beam deflection theory. As the ends move in the moment drops and so the non linear solution is stiffer than the linear one (ultimately of course you end up with two vertical bits in tension, no bending at all).

Only a the pilot plant stage so far. $10/tonne of water, which is slightly less than what I pay for water brought in by tanker. 4 kWh/tonne, but that is highly dependent on the quality of the incoming water.
A small but sensible contribution...
