2. Benchmark solution

2.1. Calculation method used for the reference solution

The imposed displacements are equivalent to a force applied to the end of the resultant:

\({\theta }_{o}\) represents the rotation of section \(\mathrm{EFGH}\):

\({\theta }_{o}=\frac{{\mathrm{FL}}^{2}}{\mathrm{2EI}}\)

Flexural stress

At the embedment it is then worth:

2.2. Benchmark results

1. Displacement \(v\) of \(E,F,G,H\) points

2. Flexural stresses

   

At points \(A,B,C,D\)

2.3. Uncertainty about the solution

Analytical solution.
