Quantity Formula
Deflection (AC) \( y_{AC} = \frac{M_0 x^2}{8 L E I} (2x - L) \)
Deflection (CB) \( y_{CB} = -\frac{M_0}{8 L E I} \left(5Lx^2 - 2x^3 - 4L^2x + L^3\right) \)
Slope (AC) \( \theta_{AC} = \frac{M_0 x}{4 L E I} (3x - L) \)
Slope (CB) \( \theta_{CB} = -\frac{M_0}{8 L E I} \left(10Lx - 6x^2 - 4L^2\right) \)
Moment (AC) \( M_{AC} = \frac{M_0}{4 L} (6x - L) \)
Moment (CB) \( M_{CB} = -\frac{M_0}{4 L} (5L - 6x) \)
Shear \( V_{AB} = \frac{3 M_0}{2 L} \)
Reaction (RA) \( R_A = \frac{3 M_0}{2 L} \)
Reaction (RB) \( R_B = -\frac{3 M_0}{2 L} \)
