I want to find out the location of neutral axis along the longitudinal axis of a cantilever beam. The beam is made up of inhomogeneous material and the loading applied on it is a Shear force at the free end.
Monitor stress values along the height of the beam. The location where stress changes from positive to negative denotes the location of the neutral axis.
The location of the neutral axis can be computed using a cross-sectional analysis code such as VABS. I am wondering how do you know the shear center. If you know how to compute shear center, neutral axis is actually much easier. VABS can be requested from https://analyswift.com/.
