  2. Structural analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_analysis

    In the context to structural analysis, a structure refers to a body or system of connected parts used to support a load. Important examples related to Civil Engineering include buildings, bridges, and towers; and in other branches of engineering, ship and aircraft frames, tanks, pressure vessels, mechanical systems, and electrical supporting structures are important.

  3. Theorem of three moments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem_of_three_moments

    In civil engineering and structural analysis Clapeyron's theorem of three moments (by Émile Clapeyron) is a relationship among the bending moments at three consecutive supports of a horizontal beam.

  4. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Structural engineering depends upon a detailed knowledge of loads, physics and materials to understand and predict how structures support and resist self-weight and imposed loads. To apply the knowledge successfully structural engineers will need a detailed knowledge of mathematics and of relevant empirical and theoretical design codes.

  5. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    Deflection (f) in engineering. In structural engineering, deflection is the degree to which a part of a long structural element (such as beam) is deformed laterally (in the direction transverse to its longitudinal axis) under a load. It may be quantified in terms of an angle (angular displacement) or a distance (linear displacement).

  6. Finite element method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

    The practical application of FEM is known as finite element analysis (FEA). FEA, as applied in engineering, is a computational tool for performing engineering analysis. It includes the use of mesh generation techniques for dividing a complex problem into smaller elements, as well as the use of software coded with a FEM algorithm.

  7. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create the form and shape of human-made structures. Structural engineers also must understand and calculate the stability , strength, rigidity and earthquake-susceptibility of built structures for ...

  8. Bending moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_moment

    Engineering descriptions of the computation of bending moments can be confusing because of unexplained sign conventions and implicit assumptions. The descriptions below use vector mechanics to compute moments of force and bending moments in an attempt to explain, from first principles, why particular sign conventions are chosen.

  9. Engineering mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_mathematics

    Along with fields like engineering physics and engineering geology, both of which may belong in the wider category engineering science, engineering mathematics is an interdisciplinary subject motivated by engineers' needs both for practical, theoretical and other considerations outside their specialization, and to deal with constraints to be ...
