C++ Visual Studio programs to plot shear force, bending moment and elastic curve for loaded beams.

This Visual Studio C++ project can be used to plot any function, as long as it can be
programmed using C++. I use it to plot diagrams for the design of loaded beams in
mechanical structures.

It is relatively easy to plot diagrams for shear force, bending moment and elastic curves of loaded
beams, particularly when the reactions at the supports of the beams are determined simply by the methods of statics. Examples using Matlab have been posted in this blog before.

Now there are two applications that work together to produce those diagrams, useful for analysis
and design of loaded beams.

The Visual Studio .NET projects Mechanics1 and Graph are compressed in the file Graphs.zip
in the following page:

There is a Word file (Graph_readme) there in the compressed file, with instructions on how to use
the Visual Studio C++ applications.

The results of using those files are the responsibility of the user.
