FEA (version 0.0.2)

beamNodeDis: beamNodeDis

Description

Calculates global nodal displacements of beam.

Usage

beamNodeDis(beamP, BCtran, BCrot, REM, NodeKnownL, ForceV)

Value

Produces tables with new node coordinates that are produced by the geometry under an applied load.

NodeDis

Nodal displacement

GlobalND

Nodal displacement in the global environment

GlobalNDMatrix

Nodal displacement in the global environment as a reduced matrix

Arguments

beamP

Matrix (2 x n) of beam coordinates.

BCtran

Boundary constraint for nodes to translate in x or y directions.

BCrot

Boundary constraint for nodes to rotate.

REM

Reduced element matrix, returned from function ReducedEM.

NodeKnownL

data frame with constraint parameters applied to each node in the x and y directions. Formatted for use in reduced element matrix. Generated from ApplyBC function.

ForceV

Reduced force vector matrix containing the model load parameters. Returned from function ForceVector.

Examples

data(beamGeo)
data(beamFV)
data(beamREM)
data(beamBC)

ForceV = beamFV
REM = beamREM
NodeKnownL = beamBC

beamND = beamNodeDis(beamGeo$beamP, beamGeo$BCtran, beamGeo$BCrot, REM, NodeKnownL, ForceV)
