Description

• English Description
  
  Overview basic concepts of Analysis of statically indeterminate structures using stiffness method (matrix approach): bar and spring elements, beams, frames, grids and trusses. Formulation of element global stiffness matrix, and external load vectors. Implementation of Restraint and Constraint equations. Applications to practical problems. Dynamics of structures including types of dynamic loads, dynamic equilibrium of structures, and response of a single degree of freedom system to dynamic excitation: free vibration, harmonic loads, pulses and earthquakes. Application to problems in structural engineering using the Structural Analysis Programs.
