calculate deflection of beam in matlab

main.m
% Assuming you have the necessary data input for the beam 
% such as length, material properties, and loading conditions

% Calculate deflection of beam using the beam deflection equation
% Δ = (F * L^3) / (3 * E * I)
% Where:
% Δ = Deflection of beam at the center
% F = Load applied at the center
% L = Length of the beam
% E = Young's Modulus of the material
% I = Moment of inertia of the beam

% Example Calculation:
F = 100; % Load applied in Newtons
L = 2; % Length of the beam in meters
E = 200e9; % Young's Modulus in Pascals
I = 4.1667e-5; % Moment of inertia in meters^4

deflection = (F * L^3) / (3 * E * I);
