Abstract:Many engineering problems require geometric modeling and mechanical simulation of structures. Through the structural models, engineers try to simulate the real behavior of these structures. It is important that a model contain all the necessary parameters that describe the structure and its behavior during its useful life. In the field of dynamics, one of the most used models is the shear-frame, in which the stiffness of the structure is given by the stiffness of the columns and the whole mass is concentrated … Show more
