  2. Statically indeterminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statically_indeterminate

    A statically indeterminate structure can only be analyzed by including further information like material properties and deflections. Numerically, this can be achieved by using matrix structural analyses, finite element method (FEM) or the moment distribution method (Hardy Cross) .

  3. Moment distribution method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_distribution_method

    The moment distribution method is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. [1] The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects.

  4. Fixed end moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_end_moment

    The fixed end moments are reaction moments developed in a beam member under certain load conditions with both ends fixed. A beam with both ends fixed is statically indeterminate to the 3rd degree, and any structural analysis method applicable on statically indeterminate beams can be used to calculate the fixed end moments.

  5. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    In structural engineering, the direct stiffness method, also known as the matrix stiffness method, is a structural analysis technique particularly suited for computer-automated analysis of complex structures including the statically indeterminate type.

  6. Mechanical equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_equilibrium

    Such a situation is described as statically indeterminate. Statically indeterminate situations can often be solved by using information from outside the standard equilibrium equations.

  7. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    (0) real beam, (1) shear and moment, (2) conjugate beam, (3) slope and displacement The conjugate-beam methods is an engineering method to derive the slope and displacement of a beam. A conjugate beam is defined as an imaginary beam with the same dimensions (length) as that of the original beam but load at any point on the conjugate beam is ...

  8. Indeterminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate

    Indeterminate (variable), a symbol that is treated as a variable; Indeterminate system, a system of simultaneous equations that has more than one solution; Indeterminate equation, an equation that has more than one solution; Indeterminate form, an algebraic expression with certain limiting behaviour in mathematical analysis

  9. Indeterminate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_system

    An indeterminate system by definition is consistent, in the sense of having at least one solution. [3] For a system of linear equations, the number of equations in an indeterminate system could be the same as the number of unknowns, less than the number of unknowns (an underdetermined system ), or greater than the number of unknowns (an ...
