Abstract

The new approach to the static analysis of planar truss is presented in this paper. The basis of this approach is to make a discretization of elastic bars of which truss consist on a rigid segments mutually connected by elastic joint element. Taking into account that the bars in truss are only axially loaded, the prismatic joints with springs of corresponding stiffness in them are used. The general algorithm for static analysis of trusses with various shapes was formed by using the fundamental principles of analytical mechanics.
