A simple beam analysis tool

Beam Analysis

Beam Analysis is a lightweight Python package for structural beam analysis.

Example - Cantilever Beam

from pybeam import members

length = 5  # m
resolution = 1000  # points
load = 50  # N
load_position = 5  # m

# create generic loadable member
loadable = members.Loadable(length, resolution)

# add load 
loadable.add_shear_point_force(load, load_position/length)  # relative position

# reaction loads (no automated solver yet)
loadable.add_shear_point_force(-load, 0)
loadable.add_point_moment(-load*length, 0)

loadable.plot()

Sign convention: positive shear loads downwards.
