| Deflection \( y_{AB} \) |
\[
y_{AB} = \frac{w_{0}a^2x}{12LEI} \left( L^2 - x^2 \right)
\] |
| Deflection \( y_{BC} \) |
\[
y_{BC} = \frac{-w_{0}x_1}{24EI} \left( 4a^2L + 6a^2x_1 - 4ax_1^2 + x_1^3 \right)
\] |
| Slope \( \theta_{AB} \) |
\[
\theta_{AB} = \frac{w_{0}a^2}{12LEI} \left( L^2 - 3x^2 \right)
\] |
| Slope \( \theta_{BC} \) |
\[
\theta_{BC} = \frac{-w_{0}}{6EI} \left( a^2L + 3a^2x_1 - 3ax_1^2 + x_1^3 \right)
\] |
| Moment \( M_{AB} \) |
\[
M_{AB} = \frac{-w_{0}a^2x}{2L}
\] |
| Moment \( M_{BC} \) |
\[
M_{BC} = \frac{-w_{0}}{2} \left( a - x_1 \right)^2
\] |
| Shear \( V_{AB} \) |
\[
V_{AB} = \frac{-w_{0}a^2}{2L}
\] |
| Shear \( V_{BC} \) |
\[
V_{BC} = w_{0} \left( a - x_1 \right)
\] |
| Reactions \( R_A \), \( R_B \) |
\[
R_A = \frac{-w_{0}a^2}{2I}, \quad R_B = \frac{w_{0}(2L + a)a}{2L}
\] |
| Where \( x_1 \) |
\[
x_1 = x - L
