ANALYSIS OF SPACE FRAMES

The report deals with the analysis of space frames for three types of failure: plastic mechanism failure, buckling failure, and overall instability failure. The frames are assumed to be rigidly jointed and are made of material with elastic and perfectly plastic properties. All loads are proportional and their directions remain unchanged. (Author)
