Chapter 3: Sections 3.1-3.9 + Lecture notes
Summary:
• Stiffness matrix of a bar/truss element
• Coordinate transformation
• Stiffness matrix of a truss element in 2D space
•Problems in 2D truss analysis (including multipoint
constraints)
•3D Truss element
Trusses: Engineering structures that are composed only
of two-force members. e.g., bridges, roof supports
Actual trusses: Airy structures composed of slender
members (I-beams, channels, angles, bars etc) joined
together at their ends by welding, riveted connections or
large bolts and pins
A typical truss structure
Gusset plate
Ideal trusses:
Assumptions
• Ideal truss members are connected only at their ends.
• Ideal truss members are connected by frictionless pins (no
moments)
• The truss structure is loaded only at the pins
• Weights of the members are neglected
A typical truss structure
Frictionless pin
These assumptions allow us to idealize each truss
member as a two-force member (members loaded only
at their extremities by equal opposite and collinear
forces)

FEM analysis scheme
Step 1: Divide the truss into bar/truss elements connected to
each other through special points (“nodes”)
Step 2: Describe the behavior of each bar element (i.e. derive its
stiffness matrix and load vector in local AND global coordinate
system)
Step 3: Describe the behavior of the entire truss by putting
together the behavior of each of the bar elements (by assembling
their stiffness matrices and load vectors)
Step 4: Apply appropriate boundary conditions and solve

NOTES
1. Assume that there is no stiffness in the local ^y direction.
2. If you consider the displacement at a point along the local x
direction as a vector, then the components of that vector along the
global x and y directions are the global x and y displacements.
3. The expanded stiffness matrix in the local coordinates is
symmetric and singular.
NOTES
5. In local coordinates we have
fˆ  kˆ dˆ
4 1
4  4 4 1
But or goal is to obtain the following relationship
f  k d
4 1
4  4 4 1
Hence, need a relationship between dˆ and d

Columns of the global stiffness matrix
What if d1=1, d2=0, d3=0 ?
F1  k 11
F2  k 21
F3  k 31
While d.o.f 2 and 3 are held fixed
Force along d.o.f 1 due to unit displacement at d.o.f 1
Force along d.o.f 2 due to unit displacement at d.o.f 1
Force along d.o.f 3 due to unit displacement at d.o.f 1
Similarly we obtain the physical significance of the other
entries of the global stiffness matrix
In general
k ij
= Force at d.o.f ‘i’ due to unit displacement at d.o.f ‘j’
keeping all the other d.o.fs fixed
