Abstract

In this chapter, an efficient method is presented for the analysis of non-regular structures which are obtained by addition or removal of some members to regular structural models. Here a near-regular structure is divided into two sets, namely “the regular part of the structure” and “the excessive members”. Regular part refers to the structure for which the inverse of the stiffness matrix can be obtained by the previously developed simplified methods, and excessive members refer to those which cause the non-regularity of the regular structure.
