This model is the didactical analysis of a clamped beam (static 3D elasticity). The dimensions of the beam and the material parameter can be modified interactively in the ONELAB window, as well as a number of modeling parameters. Diagrams of the internal moments can be generated by checking the box Compute MT diagrams.

To start the model, open a terminal from the left menu-bar of the virtual machine window, and issue the command gmsh at the prompt. Then, from the File > Open menu of Gmsh, open the file beam.py located in the ELMERMODELS/beam3d directory.
