This report presents the results of an analytical study undertaken to develop an implicit numerical method for determining the deflected shape of a rectangular plane frame with three degrees of freedom at each joint. The study consists of (1) the development of equations describing the behavior of a rectangular plane frame under any reasonable conditions of loading and restraint, (2) the development of an alternating-direction implicit method for the solution of these equations, and (3) the application of the method to the solution of realistic example problems.
An efficient numerical method of solution to structural frame problems is presented. The method is shown to be applicable to no-sway, plane-frame stru...
