• Boundary conditions (Συνοριακές συνθήκες)
– Nodes1 and 3 are firmly supported: u1, v1, u3 and v3 = 0.
– At node 2 forces are applied: F2x = 50 N, F2y = 0 N

– The components of the force in the local y direction is 0.
– At the local x direction the forces are equal and opposite.
– The force at node 2 is equal with the element force :
Pe=keΔe=184125(-1.81 10-4)=-33.3N (compression).

– Normal stress σ= -33.3 / 0.049 = -679.6 N/cm2.

Plane Trusses: Development of the system equations and
solution.
• Basic stages
– Formulation of equations in the absolute system for each
[k] T
T
element using the stiffness matrix: [k ] T
– Assembly of equations for the formulation of the system
equations.
– Solve for the displacements in the absolute coord. system
(u and v).
– Use of displacements u nd v in the absolute system for the
calculation of the displacements in the local coord. system
(u και v).
– Use of local displacements u και v for the calculation of the
forces at the nodes.
– Use of u and v displacements at the local system for the
calculation of the element forces.

equations in the absolute system.
• Using equation 3.7 the stiffness matrix for each element can
be formulated based on the directional cosines (συνημίτονων
