clc; clear all;
%%cantilever beam with square tip mass
% cantilver dimensions 
w = 0.2 ;  % width
h = 1. ;   % height 
% make cooridnates 
x = [0 w w 0] ;
y = [0 0 h h] ;
% square mass
wm = 0.6 ;
hm = 0.2 ;
% make mass coordinates 
xm = [-0.2 0.4 0.4 -0.2] ;
ym = [h h h+hm h+hm] ;
% plot
figure
patch(x,y,'k') ;
hold on
patch(xm,ym,'k') ;
axis([-2 2 0 2]) ;
title('cantilver beam with square tip mass') ;
%%cantilever beam with circular mass
% cantilever dimensions 
w = 0.2 ;  % width
h = 1. ;   % height 
% make cooridnates 
x = [0 w w 0] ;
y = [0 0 h h] ;
% circular mass
r = 0.2 ;
th = linspace(0,2*pi) ;
xm = 0.1+r*cos(th) ;
ym = 1.1+r*sin(th) ;

hold on
