Space Trusses & Frames
This lecture covers the analysis of space trusses in 3D, frames, and machines, focusing on the equilibrium of joints and the determination of internal forces. The instructor addresses the importance of hierarchy in structural metamaterials and the design principles behind them. Examples and strategies for solving structural problems are provided, including the computation of forces in truss members and the determination of pressure in hydraulic cylinders. The lecture emphasizes the significance of simple statically determinate structures and the segmentation of complex systems for analysis.
