PROBLEMFor the plane truss given below, using the Matrix Stiffness Analysis method, determine;• Determine displacements of the joints• Determine the forces in the truss members• Determine the support reactionsNote that the whole system has 4 nodes and hence 8 degrees of freedom. These degrees of freedomsare shown (in their positive directions) on the right hand side of the problem picture (1 to 8). So, thesystem stiffness matrix, K, will be 8x8 in size.Force and displacement units should be consistent (mm’s and N’s for example)

Hi, I have been given this pin-jointed frame analysis to solve (see pictures of the structure attached). Can you help me? The Figure 2 attached is a simplified structure to undertake a structural analysis on a concept design for a low cost stroller/buggy for children. The buggy consists of a number of metal sections that are pin-jointed together. The buggy is designed to accommodate a child of mass no more than 20 kg, sat on the seat which is supported at four points (Fc) on the frame of the buggy. Assume that the weight of the child is equally distributed across all of the points indicated on Figure 2 as Fc. Assume that there are no additional forces applied to the handle of the buggy, that the buggy is static (stationary) and that the buggy, and the elements of the frame have no mass. At points A and G, there are roll supports. At Points B, F and D there are the pin supports. I am required to determine the following: 1) Draw a free-body diagram of the structure 2) Simplify the Free…

E T-50" 60 C Force ? Suppose rod AB is hinged to a fixed wall. Rope CDE is attached to the rod at C, 4 from the hinge. The rope passes over a pulley D. which is mounted on another fixed wall. The angle ACD is 60 degree. The other end of the rope is connected to a mechanism (not shown), which requires 50 lb. force to be actuated. How much downward hand force will be required at point B. 5' from the hinge, to actuate the mechanism? When the hand force is applied, what reaction force will be developed in hinge A? Assume the rod is weightless, rigid and amply strong and the rope is flexible and amply strong.

The image depicts the components of a floor jack. If the hydraulic cylinder AB is intended to withstand a maximum compressive force of 37 kN, find the load L (in kN) and force (in kN) in link EF under this circumstance. Additionally, compute the pin reaction (in kN) at C. The hydraulic cylinder AB, the link EF, and the platform DF all have the necessary FBDs. Additionally, create a combined FBD for the platform DF and the member BCD. Take note that if the figure CDFE is traced, it becomes a parallelogram. Additionally, members BCD and EF are connected to the jack's base via pins at C and E. Disregard the friction between members BCD and EF's contacting faces.
