Beam geometric non-linear effects – end loads
Following the previous post, I found some errors in the Python code: Point loads applied at the left hand end generated incorrect results. The effect of beam deflections on shear forces was not included. These problems have now been fixed, … Continue reading

Beam geometric non-linear effects – Python version
In 2018 I posted Beam geometric non-linear effects with a VBA based spreadsheet to calculate beam actions and deflections under combined transverse and axial load, allowing for geometric non-linear effects. I have now converted the code to Python, linking to Excel … Continue reading
