This is our governing equation for the transverse displacements v(x).
It is a 4th – order non-homogeneous ODE:
x is the independent variable
v(x) is the dependent field variable
E, I and ω are constant coefficients

Example: 2-element cantilever beam
The solution is great! Exact, in fact. Why?
If you were to solve the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation (strong form!)
directly for this load case, you would get v(x) to be the following
(downwards positive): W L3 3 x 2 1 x 3

WB L3 9 x 9
Linear EI 50 L − 250 for 0.6 L ≤ x ≤ L
The 1st part is cubic and the 2nd part is linear, so the cubic
interpolation field is of the same order as the analytical result.
This means that our ‘approximate’ FE solution happens to contain
the ‘exact’ solution, and thus solves exactly for the dofs
This usually happens only for very simple problems, but here there is
no point in adding further elements.
