This article presents an error analysis of a Hermite cubic immersed finite element (IFE) method for solving certain initial-boundary value problems (IBVP) modeling a time-dependent Euler-Bernoulli beam formed by multiple materials together with suitable jump conditions at material interfaces. The optimal convergence of this IFE method is shown by both theoretical proof and numerical simulations.
