Abstract
A numerical procedure for computing the deflections and moments in beams and columns is described herein. The method is of particular applicability in determining critical buckling loads and configurations of bars of variable cross section loaded in various ways. For such problems the procedure becomes one of successive approximations. By means of a simple modification of the data entailing very little increase in numerical work, considerably greater accuracy is obtainable by this procedure than by others of similar nature hitherto available.Keywords
