Abstract
The following example will illustrate the assembly of the stiffness matrix (Eq. 15) and the solution of the final equation (Eq. 19) for a structure consisting of line elements (the cantilever beam shown in Fig. 2). The purpose of chosing such a simple structure is to illustrate to the reader every detail of the procedure. For larger and complicated systems the procedure is the same but lengthier.
