Cantilever Beam with a UDL on Some Portion:
Udl on the right half portion id following:
Consider a cantilever beam loaded with a Udl of w/unit length on portion CB as illustrated in Figure
Consider a section X-X at a distance x from left end.
Moment,

The governing equation for deflection is following:
EI (d 2 y/dx2) = M = -w/2[x-(l/2)]2
Integrating the Eq. (129), we can get
EI (dy/ dx) =- w/ 6[ x- (l/2)]3 + C1
EIy (dy/dx) = -w/24 [ x -(l/2)]4+ C1x+C2
The constants C1 and C2 can be found from boundary conditions. The boundary conditions are :
At B, x = l, dy / dx = 0 -------------(1)
At B, x = l, y = 0 --------- (2)
Applying the boundary condition (1) into the Eq. (9.130), we can get
0 = -w/ 6[l-(l/2)]3 + C1
∴ C1 = wl3 / 48
Applying boundary condition (2) into the Eq. (9.131), we can get
0= -(w/24)(l-(l/2))4+(wl3/48 )´l + C2
=(wl4/(24´16 ))[-1+8]+C2
C2=-7wl4/384
The slope and deflection equations shall be :
EI( dy/dx) =- (w/6)[x-(l/2)]3 + w l3 /48
EIy =- (w/24)[x-(l/2)]4+wl3/48x-7wl4/384
Slope at (x = 0),
θA = + 48 wl4 /48EI
Slope at C (x = l/2) ,
θc = + 48 wl4 /48EI
Deflection at A (x = 0),
y A =- (7 / 384) (wl 4/ EI)
Deflection at C (x = l/2) ,
EIyc =+ (wl3/ 48)× (l /2) - (7wl 4/384)
= (wl 4 /384)(4 - 7) =- 3 w l 4/384
∴ y C =- (3/384)(wl4/ EI)
