Download or read book Computer Aided Structural Engineering CASE Project A Three Dimensional Stability Analysis Design Program 3DSAD Report 2 General Loads Module written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer program 3DSAD does an overturning and sliding stability analysis for complex three-dimensional structures. Specific structure types and general shapes can be handled. General modules are: geometry--to define, display, and compute mass properties; loads--to define, display, and compute loads; analysis--to perform a base analysis assuming a rigid body on an elastic foundation; and free-body--to use clipping capability for a free-body analysis. Geometry is defined by two-dimensional cross sections swept or grown linearly or axisymmetrically in third dimension, eight-node brick finite elements, and clusters of planar faces and bicubic patches. Loads are computed by giving a direction to a volume defined in the General Geometry Module format, specifying a point load, and simplifying load commands wherever soil and water levels are specified. Geometry and loads may be displayed by color wire-frame, hidden line, or continuous tone plots, and load cases may be defined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This module of the three-dimensional stability analysis/design program (3DSAD) enables the engineer to describe the geometry of a three-dimensional structure, to interactively plot the desired structure, and then to obtain volume, weight, and centroid information for the structure. The general ways in which geometry is described are (a) two-dimensional cross sections extended in the third dimension, (b) eight-node brick elements, and (c) clusters of planar polygonal patches. Curved segments can be either circular, elliptical, or quadratic. Hidden lines in a view can be either deleted or dashed. (Author).

This book was released on 1989 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 3DSAD (Three Dimensional Stability Analysis Design) performs an overturning and sliding stability analysis for complex three-dimensional structures. Specific structure types and general shapes can be handled. General modules are: geometry--to define, display, and compute mass properties; loads-- to define, display, and compute loads; analysis--to perform a base analysis assuming a rigid body on an elastic foundation; and free-body--to use clipping capability for a free-body analysis. The Free-Body Module is a utility written to provide the user with the ability to perform an analysis of a structure at elevations or cross sections other than its base. It produces a free body containing a new definition of geometry and loads, by allowing the user the ability to clip the structure with a single plane or multiple planes. Output consists of a file containing the clipped geometry and loads data for use with the General Geometry or General Loads Module and a base file used with the forces and moments computed from the first data file to perform an analysis with the General Analysis Module. The General Analysis Module is used to produce a base pressure computation that is an approximation of the internal stresses in the structure at the clipping plane. Keywords: Computer-aided design, Free-body computation, Interactive graphics, Stress analysis, Structural stability, Three-dimensional graphics.
