 # Stepped-Euler-Bernoulli-Beam
-Inhomogeneous bending stiffness in Euler-Bernoulli Beam modelled with singularity functions
+Inhomogeneous bending stiffness in Euler-Bernoulli beam modelled with singularity functions.
+
+The live script `examples.mlx` contains examples for the functions `oneFieldBeam.mlx` and `twoFieldBeam.mlx`.
+
+The live function `oneFieldBeam.mlx` calculates the displacement, rotation, curvature and bending moment for a single-span beam with changing bending stiffness. You can choose between pinned and fixed ends.
+
+The live function `twoFieldBeam.mlx` calculates the displacement, rotation, curvature and bending moment for a two-span beam (continuous beam) with changing bending stiffness. You can choose between pinned and fixed ends.
+
+The live functions uses singularity functions to implement the changing bending stiffness in the beam.
+Also the load and support forces are modelled with singularity functions.
+See reference for detailed explanation.
