====== pyBeam

Python module for structural analysis of statically determinate thin beams.

Available types of supports:

• simple support (deflection fixed),
• only angle of deflection fixed,
• encastre (both deflection and angle of deflection fixed),

Available types of loads:

• force [N]
• moment [N.m]
• constant continuous load [N/m]

The Beam class provides methods for calculating:

• reactions,
• bending force and bending moment along the beam,
• deflection and angle of deflection.

Requirements

For importing beam into other scripts: numpy, scipy

For running the example: matplotlib

The software should work under both python versions 2 and 3, but has not been tested systematically against different versions of its requirements.
