A uniform beam ($$EI=$$ constant) $$PQ$$ in the form of a quarter-circle of radius $$R$$ is fixed at end $$P$$ and free at the end $$Q,$$ where a load $$W$$ is applied as shown. The vertical downward displacement, $${\delta _q},$$ at the loaded point $$Q$$ is given by : $${\delta _q} = \beta \left( {{{W{R^3}} \over {EI}}} \right).$$
Find the value of $$\beta $$(correct to $$4-$$decimal places). _____________________
