Worked Example
default_test
Given:
- e_mod = 200
- f_load = 10
- l_span = 2
- i_moment = 200
Expected Result:
- delta_tip = 0.00066666666666667
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: delta_tip = 0.00066666666666667 mm.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
delta_tip = f_load * pow(l_span, 3) / (3 * e_mod * i_moment)delta_tip.
