Its a simple case of concentrated load and can be solved by Macaulay's method easily.

In a simply supported beam maximum deflection always occur at the center of the beam.

If we take a and b equal to L/2 then this equation doesn't satisfy the equation of central loaded beam = Wl3/48EI.
So this is wrong Question Or the Answer given here is Wrong.

Max Deflection = Wa/9underroot3 EIL * (Lsquare - a square)rest to 3/2.

When simply supported beam always maximum deflection occurs at centre of the beam.

When simply supported beam deflection is wl3/48EI AND IS satisfy above equation if we take a and b equal to L/2.

Whatever mentioned above is deflection at C & Max. Deflection = ((wa(l^2-a^2)^1.5))/9*3^(1/2)*EIl)).

Above question is satisfying the equation when a=l/2, b=l/2 in the w*a^2*b^2/48EI.
