    Equilibrium Theory
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on developing a mathematical framework for simulating deformation physics in building design. The goal is to create a simulation program or plugin that can provide insights into structural equilibrium and design cautions. The original poster seeks comprehensive references and treatises to enhance their understanding of these concepts. There is a suggestion to improve the sharing of visual materials by attaching files instead of embedding them. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for robust resources in the field of building design simulations.

I've been thinking about the building-design simulation, and am hoping that someone can point me toward more complete treatises/references, than this hobbyist impression.

I'm trying to develop a mathematical outline of simulated deformation physics, with the hope of eventually creating a building-design cautions via simulation program and/or plugin (long-term hope).

Here's what I've been thinking about:

If you know of nice references of this, please let me know. Thanks for you consideration.

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
