Structural analysis of continuous beam using finite element method and ANSYS software
Abstract
A number of methods were developed to analyze bending moment and shear force diagrams for multi-span continuous beams, including the three-moment equation, force method, displacement method, moment distribution method, and finite element method (FEM), etc. The FEM can solve many kinds of complex problems, many different types of loads, and different boundary conditions that cannot be solved by classical methods. Presently, with the advent of simulation software such as ANSYS, a software specialized in numerical simulation in structural analysis, has made the analysis of complex problems easier than other methods. In this paper, the authors have analyzed a three-span continuous beam using finite element method and ANSYS via GUI method and APDL parameters, this is a simple problem but here is the beginning to study more complex problems with ANSYS.
