SynopsisA rigorous, concise development of the concepts of modern matrix structural analysis, with particular emphasis on the techniques and methods that form the basis of the finite element method. All relevant concepts are presented in the context of two-dimensional (planar) structures composed of bar (truss) and beam (frame) elements, together with simple discrete axial, shear and moment resisting spring elements. The book requires only some basic knowledge of matrix algebra and fundamentals of strength of materials., Presenting a development of the concepts of modern matrix structural analysis, this text emphasizes the techniques and methods that are the basis for the finite element method., The field of structural analysis has experienced profound change in the past three decades. This book presents a rigorous, concise development of the concepts of modern matrix structural analysis with emphasis on techniques and methods which are the basis for the Finite Element Method. The material is presented in a traditional manner.
