Question: Solving ODE in Maple

Hi Guys,

I am trying to solve the folling ODE in maple but am struggling to get to the correct solution. I first of all have the following equations;

Diff(V(x), [x]) = q(x)

Diff(M(x), [x]) = V(x)

theta(x) = Diff(v(x),[x])

M(x)=EI*theta(x)

Which give me the following;

q(x) = Diff(EI*(Diff(v(x), [`$`(x, 2)])), [`$`(x, 2)])

With thw boundary conditions;

M(l) = 0, M(0) = 0, v(0) = 0, v(l) = 0

The given solution is;

v(x)=(qx/24EI)*(x^3-2lx^2+l^3)

Anything that might point me in the right direction would be great!

Cheers

Steve
