2. Structural analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_analysis

   In the context to structural analysis, a structure refers to a body or system of connected parts used to support a load. Important examples related to Civil Engineering include buildings, bridges, and towers; and in other branches of engineering, ship and aircraft frames, tanks, pressure vessels, mechanical systems, and electrical supporting structures are important.

   Finite element software for structural, geotechnical, heat transfer and seepage analysis: Intuition Software: 5.11: 2016-01: Proprietary software: Free educational version available [17] Mac OS X, Windows: JCMsuite: Finite element software for the analysis of electromagnetic waves, elasticity and heat conduction: JCMwave GmbH: 5.4.3: 2023-03-09 ...

4. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

   One of the largest areas to utilize the direct stiffness method is the field of structural analysis where this method has been incorporated into modeling software. The software allows users to model a structure and, after the user defines the material properties of the elements, the program automatically generates element and global stiffness ...

5. Finite element method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

   Generally, FEM is the method of choice in all types of analysis in structural mechanics (i.e., solving for deformation and stresses in solid bodies or dynamics of structures). In contrast, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tend to use FDM or other methods like finite volume method (FVM).

6. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

   Structural engineers are responsible for engineering design and structural analysis. Entry-level structural engineers may design the individual structural elements of a structure, such as the beams and columns of a building. More experienced engineers may be responsible for the structural design and integrity of an entire system, such as a ...

7. Glossary of structural engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_structural...

   Structural health monitoring – Structural insulated panel – Structural integrity and failure – Structural loads – or actions, are forces, deformations, or accelerations applied to structure components. [31] [32] Loads cause stresses, deformations, and displacements in structures. Assessment of their effects is carried out by the methods ...

8. Statically indeterminate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statically_indeterminate

   Numerically, this can be achieved by using matrix structural analyses, finite element method (FEM) or the moment distribution method (Hardy Cross) . Practically, a structure is called 'statically overdetermined' when it comprises more mechanical constraints – like walls, columns or bolts – than absolutely necessary for stability.

9. Applied element method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_element_method

   The applied element method (AEM) is a numerical analysis used in predicting the continuum and discrete behavior of structures. The modeling method in AEM adopts the concept of discrete cracking allowing it to automatically track structural collapse behavior passing through all stages of loading: elastic, crack initiation and propagation in tension-weak materials, reinforcement yield, element ...
