In this paper, we study numerically the existence and stability of some special solutions of the nonlinear beam equation: \begin{document}$u_{tt}+u_{xxxx}+u-|u|^{p-1} u = 0$\end{document} when \begin{document}$p = 3$\end{document} and \begin{document}$p = 5$\end{document} . For the standing wave solutions \begin{document}$u(x, t) = e^{iω t}\varphi_{ω}(x)$\end{document} we numerically illustrate their existence using variational approach. Our numerics illustrate the existence of both ground states and excited states. We also compute numerically the threshold value \begin{document}$ω^*$\end{document} which separates stable and unstable ground states. Next, we study the existence and linear stability of periodic traveling wave solutions \begin{document}$u(x, t) = φ_c(x+ct)$\end{document} . We present numerical illustration of the theoretically predicted threshold value of the speed \begin{document}$c$\end{document} which separates the stable and unstable waves.
