Lecture 6 N. M. Anoop Krishnan
Recap
Ø Bar, beam elements
Boundary conditions
• For a structure, the equation [K]{D} = {R} can be written as
𝐊 𝟏𝟏 𝐊 𝟏𝟐 𝐃 𝐱 𝐑𝐜
=
𝐊 𝟐𝟏 𝐊 𝟐𝟐 𝐃𝐜 𝐑𝒙
where the subscripts c and x corresponds to known and unknown
quantities, respectively. Note that any weights/loads that need to
be included in the analysis should not be applied on the supports
with prescribed bc.
• 𝐷A = 𝐾"" C" 𝑅E − 𝐾"% {𝐷E }
