AI Thread Summary
Setting I2 to zero in equations 1 to 3 allows for the calculation of I1. The first equation simplifies to V1 = j5*I1. Substituting this into the third equation results in 425<0 - (5 + j5)*I1 = 0, leading to the expression I1 = 425/(5 + j5). This value of I1 can then be used to determine V2 by substituting back into the second equation. The process demonstrates how I1 is derived from the initial equations under the specified condition.

after we put I2=0 in equations 1 to 3
we have expressions of I1
how did they get I1
because they presented numbers

If you let I2 be zero, then equation 1 becomes:

V1 = j5*I1

Substitute this into equation 3 and you have:

425<0 - 5*I1 - j5*I1 = 0

or

425<0 - (5 + j5)*I1 = 0

so that I1 = 425/(5 + j5)

Substitute this back into equation 2 (with I2 = 0), and you get V2.
 
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...
