Element 1 is a steel bar that has a circular cross-section with a radius of 30 mm. Element 2 is an aluminum bar that has a circular cross-section with a radius of 50 mm. Element 3 is a steel bar that has a circular cross- section with a radius of 60 mm. Assume for steel, the moduļus, E, is 2.0E11 Pa, and the density, p, is 7800 kg/m3. Assume for aluminum, E-7.0E10 Pa, and p-2700 kg/m3. The rigid, massless rod...

Question 1: For the plane (2D) truss shown below, evaluate the transformation matrix [T] and the stiffness matrix in the local axis system [KL] of all elements. Use these matrices to evaluate the element stiffness matrix in global axis system [KG] of the members and assembled them to generate the overall stiffness matrix [K of the truss. Modify the stiffness matrix [K] in order to incorporate boundary conditions following the elimination technique of rows and columns. Take E 200 GPa...
