    Representing Beam as a Spring and positioning it, to achieve same deflection value.

    Thank you all, it was really helpful, I got some ideas from all this post and everything was highly appreciated.

    Representing Beam as a Spring and positioning it, to achieve same deflection value.

    it is actually attached using a tension member and my problem is to calculate the stiffness of this substitute Spring.

    @rb1957 the top beam is cantilevered at the LH end?, RIGHT..BUT its also attached to the Lower beam entirely to its RH. Think of a fuselage stringer attached to the skin (Actually, the upper beam represent a stringer flange and the lower beam , the skin)...Both fixed at the far LH.

    Representing Beam as a Spring and positioning it, to achieve same deflection value.

    @IDS, Sir, the initial problem is that, i have an Hat(Omega) stringer. and with this, am trying to model it as a double/triple beam so that the mechanical properties of the Modeled Beam, will represent or be almost equal to that of the full Omega stringer. and to do this, i need to create the...

    Representing Beam as a Spring and positioning it, to achieve same deflection value.

    @ BAretired, thank you very much sir, for your reply, its painting some clear picture now. So, how do you go about it to find the Spring which will represent the upper beam for the CASE 1 that you just described. My problem is how to generate that spring and to position it. guide me on the steps...

    Representing Beam as a Spring and positioning it, to achieve same deflection value.

    Hallo Engineers, I really need your help urgently. I have this problem as part of my project work. I have a beam fixed on the wall and on-top of that beam, another beam with more less 1/3 or the total length of the initial beam. The two are attached together. with this, i will have two different...
