The application of the law of virtual work in the solution of civil engineering structures

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the civil engineering application of the law of virtual work to the determination of defelections, shears, bending stresses in truss structures, beams, structures subjected to both direct stress and bending, and indeterminate structures, and further to give examples of their mathematical solutions.
