AI Thread Summary
To analyze a circuit with a gap, it's crucial to identify the components and their connections, particularly focusing on loops and nodes. The mesh current method is recommended for solving circuit problems, as it simplifies the analysis of closed loops. Starting points for analysis typically involve applying Kirchhoff's Voltage Law to determine voltage drops and currents. Additionally, sharing the problem in a more accessible format, such as a PDF or screenshot, can facilitate better assistance. Clear communication of the problem setup is essential for effective troubleshooting and guidance.

I'm having trouble figuring out where to start with the attached problem. I don't know how to approach a circuit with a gap, and I don't know where or if it loops. Any general help would be appreciated, like "use the mesh current method" or explaining where the starting point is.

Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'

Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
