The Nonlinear Structural Analysis lecture provides a basic introduction to the topic of nonlinear calculation within structural analysis. Students learn the difference between physical and geometric nonlinearity.
Selected topics:
- Introduction to nonlinear structural analysis
- Geometric nonlinearities
- Physical nonlinearities
- Truss calculations according to first-order theory (partially PC pool)
- Truss calculations according to second-order theory (partially PC pool)
