Problem 619
Determine the value of EIy midway between the supports for the beam loaded as shown in Fig. P-619.
 

Problem 618
A simply supported beam carries a couple M applied as shown in Fig. P-618. Determine the equation of the elastic curve and the deflection at the point of application of the couple.
