Please use MATLAB with codes and figures.Recreate the following four Figures of the textbook using MATLAB and the appropriate parameters. Comment on your observations for each Figure. List all of the parameters that you have used. The figures are attached below
A simply supported beam for a building interior with 18 ft span has a cross
section of 12 in width and 21 in overall depth. The beam is made with 5 ksi
compressive strength concrete and 60 ksi reinforcing steel. The beam supports a
uniform service superimposed dead load of 1.6 kip/ft, and a uniform service live
load of 80 psf throughout the span. The beams are laterally spaced 20 ft apart
c/c. Design this beam and show in a sketch.
The dam presented below is 180 m long (in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the
cross-section). For the water elevations given on the drawing:
a) Construct the flow net (minimum number of equipotential lines should be 10),
b) Calculate the rate of seepage for the entire dam,
c) Find the total uplift force on the dam (ignore barriers), and
d) Estimate the hydraulic gradient at points A, B, and D.
Recommended to use a spreadsheet to include all equations for calculations of potentials.

Some of these vehicles have electronic identifiers that allow them to enter the park immediately, beginning at 8:00 A.M., without stopping (they are billed remotely). All vehicles without such identifiers stop at a single processing booth, but they wait in line until it opens at 8:10 A.M. Once open, the operator processes vehicles at μ(t) = 8 + 0.5t [where μ(t) is in vehicles per minute and t is in minutes after 8:10 A.M.]. An observer notes that at 8:25 there are exactly 20 vehicles in the queue. What percent of arriving vehicles have electronic identifiers and what is the total delay (from the 8:00 A.M. until the queue clears) for those vehicles without the electronic identifiers (assume D/D/1 queuing)?arrow_forward1.
