Mobile app coming soon · free tools available now
Master your engineering courses. Visually.
The UnborEng app replaces passive textbooks with guided, interactive lessons and parallel physics game challenges. While we build it, use our free interactive engineering tools right in your browser.
Why read a textbook when you can play the simulation?
Engineering relies on visualization. Yet, traditional classes bury you in equations first. We flipped the script: interact with the concept, understand physical failure states, then we introduce the math.
Chapter 4.2: Cantilever Deflection & Yield
For a cantilever beam fixed at one end, subject to a concentrated point load P at the free end (length L), the elastic curve and maximum bending stress are defined by the following equations:
v(x) = −Px²6EI (3L − x)
Failure limit: σmax =P · L · cI ≥ Sy

Mohr Circle Visualizer
Master 2D stress analysis interactively. Input stress states and rotation angles to visualize the Mohr's circle and stress element in real-time. Calculates principal stresses and maximum shear.
Launch tool
Statics is the foundation of every structure. Sketch the beam, supports and loads first, then solve. That is how the UnborEng tools and the upcoming app teach it.
Structured curriculum
Each course in the upcoming app pairs interactive lessons with parallel sandbox games.
