An incremental, non-linear displacement method for the elastic analysis of space trusses and plane frames

Includes bibliographical references. === An incremental displacement method which takes account of finite deflections is developed for the elastic non-linear analysis of space trusses. In the incremental loading procedure the elastic critical load of a structure is determined by establishing the loa...
