About this document
Stiffness Method for Thin-Walled Beams by Khalil Deghoum is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document presents a stiffness method for analyzing thin-walled beams with closed cross-sections. It derives an exact stiffness matrix and vector of fixed-end reactions using the principle of virtual displacement. The method is based on assumptions introduced by Benscoter and is suited for automatic computation on computers. It provides a general stiffness formulation for thin-walled beams with arbitrary closed cross-sections. The method is then illustrated with an example problem.
