Calculating axial stresses of different beams

If I have several beams(the number of beams can change ) with different dimensions ( different cross-sectional areas),all these beams are acted upon by the same axial forces of the same magnitude.How can I create a loop or a statement that will calculate the axial stress of each beam at the time using the formala axialstress=axialforce/area

E.g., maybe using the element-wise division operator is all you need:

axialforce = a scalar or vector of axial forces
area = a vector of the cross sectional areas
axialstress = axialforce ./ area;

I'm so sorry my bad , actually the axialforce is distributed along the bean's length which is 2000mm ( though its magnitude doesn't change)..the axialforce is a 2001 by 1 matrix and the there are several number of beams with diffrent sectional areas..
