A pin-jointed, simply-supported plane truss subjected to three point loads is shown below. (a) Find all of the horizontal and vertical reaction forces and calculate the internal force in all the members of the truss using the Method of Join...
Controlling the frequency response of an engineering component or structure is important in the aerospace and automotive sectors and is a key consideration when seeking a new and more efficient design for a given component. In this contribution, the standard truss layout optimization procedure is ...
