Hi !
Thank you for the help !
I tried to use ChElementBeamEuler::SetDisableCorotate(true) for a straight 
beam and the behaviour of the beam seems linear as there is no displacement 
along the span direction.
However, compared to an analytical calculation (red) and results from a 
thesis (gray), the deflection is overestimated by the linear model of 
Chrono...
Best regards,
Nicolas
