I added a reinforcement in the middle to see if it lowers stresses because it would distribute forces more.

It was found that stresses were the same or increased.

It was also found that some scenarios had the reinforcements suppressed for some reason.

Reconsidering how the fixed boundaries and accelerations are done.
