Based on the free computer algebra system Maxima, the authors offer routines for symbolically or numerically solving problems in the context of plane truss and frame structures, allowing readers to check classical ‘hand calculations’ on the one hand and to understand the computer implementation of the method on the other. The mechanical theories focus on the classical one-dimensional structural elements, i.e. bars, Euler–Bernoulli and Timoshenko beams, and their combination to generalized beam elements. Focusing on one-dimensional elements reduces the complexity of the mathematical framework, and the resulting matrix equations can be displayed with all components and not merely in the form of a symbolic representation. In addition, the use of a computer algebra system and the incorporated functions, e.g. for equation solving, allows readers to focus more on the methodology of the finite element method andnot on standard procedures. .SpringerBriefs in Computational Mechanics,2191-5350Mechanics, AppliedSolidsSolid MechanicsMechanics, Applied.Solids.Solid Mechanics.620.1Öchsner Andreasauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut317948Makvandi Resamauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910337602503321Finite Elements for Truss and Frame Structures1925326UNINA
