Book Introduction to Structural Analysis

Download or read book Introduction to Structural Analysis written by S. T. Mau and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the gap between what is traditionally taught in textbooks and what is actually practiced in engineering firms, Introduction to Structural Analysis: Displacement and Force Methods clearly explains the two fundamental methods of structural analysis: the displacement method and the force method. It also shows how these methods are applied, particularly to trusses, beams, and rigid frames. Acknowledging the fact that virtually all computer structural analysis programs are based on the matrix displacement method of analysis, the text begins with the displacement method. A matrix operations tutorial is also included for review and self-learning. To minimize any conceptual difficulty readers may have, the displacement method is introduced with the plane truss analysis and the concept of nodal displacement. The book then presents the force method of analysis for plane trusses to illustrate force equilibrium, deflection, statistical indeterminacy, and other concepts that help readers to better understand the behavior of a structure. It also extends the force method to beam and rigid frame analysis. Toward the end of the book, the displacement method reappears along with the moment distribution and slope-deflection methods in the context of beam and rigid frame analysis. Other topics covered include influence lines, non-prismatic members, composite structures, secondary stress analysis, and limits of linear and static structural analysis. Integrating classical and modern methodologies, this book explains complicated analysis using simplified methods and numerous examples. It provides readers with an understanding of the underlying methodologies of finite element analysis and the practices used by professional structural engineers.

Book The Second order Elastic Analysis of Plane Rigid Frames

Download or read book The Second order Elastic Analysis of Plane Rigid Frames written by H. B. Harrison and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer program is described which will carry out both a first-order and a second-order elastic analysis of plane rigid frames. The program will accept data describing a frame in terms of its joint coordinates, member properties and connections together with the loads for which an anlysis is required. A sequence of load sets can be analyzed so that it is possible to use the results to compute the elastic stability load for a frame. In the second order analysis, account is taken of the change in flexural stiffness of a member caused by axial load and in addition, the equilibrium equations are formulated for the deformed shape of the frame. The analysis is based on the displacement method using matrix techniques with the second order solution obtained by an iterative process. The frame size that can be handled by the program is a function of the store capacity available in any computer and the program limitations in this regard are discussed in detail. The program is in the Fortran language and was developed to aid in the computation of frame strengths in a study of the economics of using high-tensile steel in rigid structures. (Author).
