modeling simply supported beam in ansys

Submitted by Dhanashri Joglekar on

Hi,

I am modeling a simply supported beam in ansys using a plane 183 element. In this case (A two dimensional beam model) how should I give the B.C.s? Should I apply B.C.s to

1)  the mid node on the edge of beam? or

2) to the entire edge? or

3)  just to the bottom node?

according to me the first choise seems OK. But the results are not satisfactotry. plz help.

Dhanashri.
