    How can the deflection of a stepped cantilever beam be calculated?

    I agree w/ Q_Goest, however I have a follow-up question: Do the stress concentrations at the steps affect the overall deflection of the shaft? For instance, if we step up the diameter of a cantilevered shaft (such as that shown by paddy-boy66), does the shaft deflection reflect the full...
