Solving trusses with the Direct Stiffness Method
I'm creating a computer implementation to solve planar trusses. And I'm not sure how to check if the truss is solvable or not. Can you help me with that? In my implementation, the trusses are created randomly (needs to be this way), so i get a lot of unstable or indeterminate trusses. I want...- Diego Saenz

Undergrad Help with Steady State Heat Transfer Problem
Hi mikeph, My surface is simple, is a square. Is it possible to use this information to solve for T? Can you explain how can I do this? Thanks- Diego Saenz

Undergrad Help with Steady State Heat Transfer Problem
Hello everyone, I have this setady state, heat transfer problem; I hope you can help me with it. I have flux source of 400 W/m² (a lamp), and i want to calculate the heat flux passing through a surface arbitrarily placed and oriented in the space. There is air in between. How can i do this...- Diego Saenz

Graduate Free fall of hatch with a frictional hinge
Hi people! I have a real life problem that i can't solve...Im trying to figure out the tangencial speed or angular velocity of a hatch at the moment it is about to close (initially it was closed). The hatch has been accelerating due to gravity. It looks much as a pendulum to me. But, it gets...- Diego Saenz
