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