Lecture #4 Methods of Structural Analysis Trusses and frames. Statically determinate trusses
ANALYTICAL METHODS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS • Widely used nowadays: • methods of Mechanics of Materials; • methods for statically indeterminate structures: • method of forces; • method of displacements; • beam theory for thin-walled structures; • method of reduction coefficients. • Rarely used nowadays (mostly due to the progress of numerical methods): • methods based on Calculus of Variations; • methods of Theory of Elasticity. 7
NUMERICAL METHODS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS Most widely used nowadays is Finite Element Method (FEM). The structural analysis using FEM is called finite element analysis (FEA). Generally, FEM is just a method to solve differential equations. The physical background of FEM is the same as in analytical methods. 8
BASIC EQUATIONS OF SOLID MECHANICS From analytical point of view, every design model can be expressed as a set of three basic equations with corresponding boundary conditions. 14
