Comparison of modified Riks/Wempner and homotopy methods

A structured program has been developed to track the equilibrium path of geometrically nonlinear space structures by the modified Riks/Wempner method. The sparse normal flow code in 'HOMP ACK' is used for tracking the equilibrium paths by the homotopy method. Two subroutines were written a...
