Book Matrix Methods for Advanced Structural Analysis

Download or read book Matrix Methods for Advanced Structural Analysis written by Manolis Papadrakakis and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divided into 12 chapters, Matrix Methods for Advanced Structural Analysis begins with an introduction to the analysis of structures (fundamental concepts and basic steps of structural analysis, primary structural members and their modeling, brief historical overview of methods of static analysis, programming principles, and suggestions for the rational use of computer programs). This is followed by the principal steps of the Direct Stiffness Method including plane trusses, plane framed structures, space trusses, and space framed structures. The case of plane or space framed structure, including possible rigid elements at their beam ends (rigid joints) is discussed in detail. Other topics discussed in this reference include the procedure for analyzing beams with internal releases (partial connection of beam elements) and elastic hinges, as well as the alternative handling of internal releases by modifying the element stiffness matrix. Furthermore, the Method of Substructures is demonstrated for the solution of large-scale models in terms of the associated number of degrees of freedom. The principal steps of the Direct Stiffness Method are presented for plane and space trusses, as well as plane and space framed structures The handling of beams with internal releases and elastic hinges The method of substructures for large-scale structures A computer code (basic steps and source files) based on MATLAB® software for the analysis of beam-like structures

Book Advanced Methods of Structural Analysis

Download or read book Advanced Methods of Structural Analysis written by Igor A. Karnovsky and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and significantly expanded edition contains a rigorous examination of key concepts, new chapters and discussions within existing chapters, and added reference materials in the appendix, while retaining its classroom-tested approach to helping readers navigate through the deep ideas, vast collection of the fundamental methods of structural analysis. The authors show how to undertake the numerous analytical methods used in structural analysis by focusing on the principal concepts, detailed procedures and results, as well as taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of each method and sphere of their effective application. The end result is a guide to mastering the many intricacies of the range of methods of structural analysis. The book differentiates itself by focusing on extended analysis of beams, plane and spatial trusses, frames, arches, cables and combined structures; extensive application of influence lines for analysis of structures; simple and effective procedures for computation of deflections; introduction to plastic analysis, stability, and free and forced vibration analysis, as well as some special topics. Ten years ago, Professor Igor A. Karnovsky and Olga Lebed crafted a must-read book. Now fully updated, expanded, and titled Advanced Methods of Structural Analysis (Strength, Stability, Vibration), the book is ideal for instructors, civil and structural engineers, as well as researches and graduate and post graduate students with an interest in perfecting structural analysis.

Book The Influence Line Approach to the Analysis of Rigid Frames

Download or read book The Influence Line Approach to the Analysis of Rigid Frames written by Edward Buckley and published by The Rosen Publishing Group. This book was released on 2003-09-30 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Influence Line Approach to the Analysis of Rigid Frames offers a simple method of analysis of indeterminate structures. It is original and independent of other methods. The author derived these equations by applying an algebraic rather than an arithmetical method of distribution of fixed-end moments. His method is fully explained and illustrated by worked examples. The equations listed in the Tables in The Influence Line Approach to the Analysis of Rigid Frames offer a simple approach to the analysis of rigid frames, including building frames, rendering them statically determinate for any system of loading, static or moving and including the self weight of a structure. Particularly useful aspects to the reader are: -The equations are of an elementary nature consisting only of distribution factors and the co-efficient of a span length and to which values from zero to unity are given. -The equations can be used to analyze frames the members of which can be either of constant or variable cross-section, and in both cases distributions of fixed-end moments are not required. -In addition, the evaluation of fixed-end moments is not required when the frame consists of members of constant cross-section. -The equations are independent of other methods of analysis requiring neither the use of model analysis nor the application of linear equations. -The equations offer a good indication of structural behavior. -The Tables lend themselves to expansion catering for different degrees of end fixation. The Influence Line Approach to the Analysis of Rigid Frames can be taught not only to university undergraduate students, but also to those pursuing middle-level courses in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering and Building. In addition, practicing assistant structural designers will find it a useful reference work.

Book MATRIX METHODS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

Download or read book MATRIX METHODS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS written by P. N. GODBOLE and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-07-20 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes in great detail the Matrix Methods of Structural Analysis used extensively for the analysis of skeletal or framed structures. The book gives complete coverage to the subject starting from the basics. It is organized in four parts: • Part 1 contains basic knowledge required to understand the subject i.e. Matrix operations, Methods for solving equations and concepts of flexibility matrix and stiffness matrix methods. • Part 2 deals with the applications of stiffness and flexibility matrix methods using system approach. By taking simple examples, the steps involved in both the methods are discussed and it is concluded why stiffness matrix method is more suitable for analysis of skeletal structures. • Part 3 covers the Stiffness matrix (displacement) method with member approach (direct Stiffness method) which is extensively used in the analysis of framed structures. It gives the details of the method, the steps involved in the method and its application to plane truss, space truss, beams, plane and space frames and grids. • Part 4 includes a unified computer program written in FORTRAN/C for the analysis of framed structure. The development of computer program, explanation of various subroutines, input output formats with examples is given in this section. An accompanying CD with the book contains source code, explanation of INPUT/OUTPUT and test examples. Though, the concepts have been presented in quite general form so that the book serves as a learning aid for students with different educational backgrounds as well as the practicing engineers, the primary objective is to present the subject matter in a simple manner so that the book can serve as a basic learning tool for undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil engineering.
