About this book
Provides Step-by-Step Instruction Structural Analysis: Principles, Methods and Modelling Effectively Analyze Engineering Structures
Divided into four parts, the text focuses on the analysis of statically determinate structures. It evaluates basic concepts and procedures, examines the classical methods for the analysis of statically indeterminate structures, and explores the stiffness method of analysis that reinforces most computer applications and commercially available structural analysis software. In addition, it covers advanced topics that include the finite element method, structural stability, and problems involving material nonlinearity.
MATLAB® files for selected worked examples are available from the book's website. Resources available from CRC Press for lecturers adopting the book include:
- A solutions manual for all the problems posed in the book
- Nearly 2000 PowerPoint presentations suitable for use in lectures for each chapter in the book
- Revision videos of selected lectures with added narration
- Figure slides
