1. Note that only the applied load is a surface load (or traction) along the top edge.

Verify
that, for this stress field, body force is identically zero. Refer to the article on pages 81-82

2.) Using a spread sheet or other software, plot the variation of stress, x,y, and tauyz, and
von mises stress through the depth of the beam at x=0 and x=l. How do your results
compare to those of beam theory?
