The linearly elastic plane structure shown in the figure is acted upon by two vertical concentrated forces. The horizontal beams
and
are connected with the help of the vertical linear spring with spring constant
. The fixed supports are provided at
and
. It is given that flexural rigidity
,
, and
. Force
is applied at the center of beam
such that the force in the spring
becomes zero.
