Stadium Arched-Roof Truss Stadium Arched-Roof Truss Workshop Objectives: • Build a truss model and analyze it. • Determine the maximum displacement and stresses. Visualize the load path in the truss by plotting the rod element axial stresses. • Follow the load from the load application point to the fixed base. ������ Do the stresses make sense to you? Problem Description������ • Truss design is presented on the previous page and the positions of joint is presented in the following

Finite Element Analysis Introduction Finite element analysis (FEA) has become commonplace in recent years‚ and is now the basis of a multibillion dollar per year industry. Numerical solutions to even very complicated stress problems can now be obtained routinely using FEA‚ and the method is so important that even introductory treatments of Mechanics of Materials – such as these modules – should outline its principal features. In spite of the great power of FEA‚ the disadvantages of computer

v 2HAB=?A Finite Element Analysis was developed as a numerical method of stress analysis‚ but now it has been extended as a general method of solution to many complex engineering and physical science problems. As it involves lot of calculations‚ its growth is closely linked with the developments in computer technology. Now-a-days a number of finite element analysis packages are available commercially and number of users is increasing. A user without a basic course on finite element analysis may
