Hello, I was hoping to get some help on the direction in this problem. I understand we need to use the second order integration approach
but Im not sure how to enforce the boundary conditions for this problem to solve for v(x)
Hi, I believe that the boundaries should be
v(0) = 0, v'(0) has no BC (deflection and slope at point B)
v(2a) = 0, v'(2a)has no BC (deflection and slope at point D)
The continuity conditions:
v1 = v2 = 0 (deflection)
v1’=v2′ (slopes)
You should be able to plug these 4 boundary conditions into the 4 equations you found and solve
