Over the years, various methods have been developed to simplify the hand calculations forthe analysis of redundant structures; one such technique isthe moment distribution. ‘Structural analysis forthe determination of forces, moments displacements in individual members i very conveniently solved for by the application of matrix methods and basic strength of materials. The most popular and convenient technique is the matix stiffness method. The concept of the matrix stiffness method is very straight forward but the hand ‘computations involved is petitive and vedious. A computer is therefore used to speed up the process “The increasing power, availablity and falling prices of the computers have had a direct effect ‘on the engineers in their approach to structural analysis. There are numerous software available on the market for structural analyses that run on a personal computer. The matrix stiffness method is almost universally used for the structural analyses of frames. (Naturally, all software must give the same answers for the same problem. However, each software will have a different way of modeling a structure. With Graphical User Inerface now as the standard computer operating sytem, most of the modelling is done through the licking ofthe mouse. The engineers job of modelling a sueture is now even easier dhan it used 10 be as industry standard software now invariably have a graphical interface. Generally speaking, the better the graphics, the more it costs. We willbe looking atthe modelling of plane frames, that is, the structure is all ying on one plane and the loads are applied inthe same plane. There are thee steps involved: modelling (data input, analysis (he actual number crunching) and output (the results). It is insretive t Jook at a particular (simple) example to highlight the discussion, The determinate frame showin below is pinned atthe left column base and is on rollers (simple support) atthe right column base. The fame i subjected to side load of 6 KN at the tp left ‘comer, @ downward load of 24 KN a the horizontal member mid span, and a downward uniformly distributed load of 3 KNim on the horizontal member. All the members are of ‘constant section and of the same material. We want to model this on the Strand7 to get the bending moment diagram, aa 3m ‘Modelling ‘The frame must be wholly and aocurately described in the manner thatthe software is set-up {or correct imerpretation ofthe modelled frame. The user has to pay particular attention the ‘units for each item, Most programs have a default system of units for each item. The following items need to be somehow described: + frame geometry + section properties + material properties + applied loads + supports Prame geometry: nodes ‘The frame geometry is described by discrete nodes representing the section centoid, The positon of a node is deserhed by coordinates referenced to an axes system. For plane frame analysis, only two coordinate values are requited 1 fix a nodal postion, Generally, & cartesian axes system is used (although for non siaight members, a polar or esindrcal axes system may be more suitable) The cartesian axes sytem is one in which the thee axes are ‘mutually perpendicular ani it follows a Right-Hand-System (RHS). Thus, using the RHS, positive X into postive Y serews into postive Z; or positive ¥ into positive Z: screws ito positive X; or positive Z imo postive X serews into positive Y. The axes forming the plane ofthe frame will be taken es the X and Z axes [Computer Aided Ansys: Noes 23 “The nodal coordinates are defined inthe global axes system. A global axes system, implicit by its global nature, is therefore common to all the members inthe frame, regardless ofthe ‘member inclination. A convenient origin is chosen forthe global axes. Iris nt neessary tht this origin should ie on the frame. The most convenient location isthe extreme left bottom position, thus ensuring all the coordinates have a postive vale, For the example, the global axes origin is chosen te at the base of the left column, ‘The global axes system is denoted by the capital letersX, Y and Z. ‘There must be sufficient nodes to define completely the frame geometry. In this case, only four nodes would be nseded; Nodes 1,2, 4 and 5. Generally, itis good practice to define a node atthe extremities of a member, atthe location ofthe point loads and at the exttemities of a distributed loading on @ member. In some computer packages, itis not estential to define & node atthe extremities ofa distributed loading on a member, as offset positions ofthe distributed load from the member extremities can be input from which the calculations are then adjusted accordingly. ‘Additional nodes must be positioned at locations where specific output i required. Tus, if ‘he bending. moment or the displacement at a particular location is needed, then a corresponding node must be placed there, For the example then, five nodes will be needed, The actual coordinate valves will depend on the length units se bythe user inthe program. Thus: Node Computer Aided Ansys Notes aa Frame geomety: dements ‘The actual member is represerted by an element connected by two nodes, each being a the section centroid. The order in vhich the nodes are connected (topology) implicitly defines the clement axes system. Thus, an element connected from Node A to Node B will have & different element axes directions than the same element connected from Node B to Node A. ‘Thus the element topology hasto be carefully defined, ‘The element axes is sometimes referred tas the loeal axes. The element axes system is also usualy cartesian axes sytem. The element axes system is denoted bythe small lters x,y and ‘The clement positive x-axis (ometimes refered to as the beam principal axis) is the line Joining Node A to Node B, wit the origin at Node A. The element y-axis and element z-axis then forms a right hand system Its extremely important thatthe users absolutely clear as to the element axes system used, as some output (forces and moments) are given in the element axes (or in planes dependant on the local axes) and the directions of the ouput is thus dependant onthe correct interpretation ofthe element axes “This follows a RHS cartesian system, with the positive z-axis coming out ofthe paper. For the modeling of a horzontal member, the user is therefore encouraged to stick to defining ‘the first node (Node A) as being the left node, and the second node (Node B) as being the ‘ight node. change inthis order, sty from Node B to Node A, will change the directions of the local element axes (and the principal planes) “The local element axes for a vertical member is defined as B Computer Atel Analysis: Noes 2s ‘Again, this follows a RHS cartesian system, with the postive zaxis coming out of the paper.

Upper bound/uacfe theory (kinematic theory) Her, the collapse load is calculated by assuming a collapse mechanism and then equating the external work done tothe energy absorbed in the plastic hinge.
