    Complex beam bending problem

    Thanks for your reply I've removed R2 and solved for the reactions (R1' = 1975.958392N , R3' = 427.4916081N) but I cant find the deflection at x=1.724. I have M(x)= -798.758392x + 1211.009551 for the section containing x=1.724, but integrating this leaves me with unknown constants. Is there a...

    Complex beam bending problem

    Hi Wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for solving this. I am looking work out the approximate reaction forces (and eventually bending moments) for a trailer design I'm putting together and have approximated it to a simply supported beam with multiple reactions (2 x...

    Trackball as a 3d mouse?

    I'm in the UK and they're still £83 with the education discount! Only a few quid cheaper on ebay or amazon too! Does anyone know of any way that having two mice plugged into a pc can be configured to do different things? I've seen posts saying its possible to have two mice plugged in at once...

    Trackball as a 3d mouse?

    Hi all, my first post! I'm doing a lot of Solid Edge work for my uni project and was wondering if there is a cheaper alternative to the infamous 3dconnexion SpaceNavigator. I've been looking at trackballs which are considerably cheaper, but I was wondering if anyone has managed to use both a...
