This article presents an educational platform
for Mechanics of Materials based in a beam, an Arduino, a
smart phone, and Matlab-Simulink with real-time
performance. The platform components are given by
hardware setup and software setup that these are
described. Performance of the platform is assessed by
means of real-time experiments using ArduinoIO package
for a beam using loading configurations. The platform is
easy to implement and to interface using Arduino,
electronic circuits, and any computer. The platform is
considered portable, reliable, and low-cost, that it can
develop for students, opening many new possibilities for
practical assignments in Engineering for courses of statics
and Mechanics of Materials. Finally, these are included
experiments and studied topics during various practices.
