A cylindrical circular rod in the form of a quarter ring of radius R is fixed at one end. At the free end, a concentrated force P is applied in a diametral plane perpendicular to the plane of the ring. What is the deflection of the free end? Consider EI and GJ for the structure. Ignore the effect of shear and axial forces.
