What is your MATLAB question? We are not a homework writing service: you need to ask us a specific question about MATLAB.

thanks sir for your respond ,the question how to represent code for 3d frame ,2d frame and truss and beam is easy but the 3d frame have anthor idea for represnt on code

[Walter Roberson]

Represent them however is suitable for your calculation techniques. How to calculate those things is a physics or materials science question, not a MATLAB question. Which techniques for those calculations have been discussed in class?

[OMAR elayan]

in class give manual calcalation not softwear programe i learn by youtube channel for represnt this question

[Walter Roberson]

What steps did they go through in class ?

Hi there,

I have solved similar to this problem by defining

/********

nodeCoordinates=[0 0 0; 
0 0 1; 
1 0 1; 
1 0 0;
0 1 0; 
0 1 1; 
1 1 1; 
1 1 0;
];
xx=nodeCoordinates(:,1); 
yy=nodeCoordinates(:,2); 
zz=nodeCoordinates(:,3);
elementNodes=[1 5;2 6;3 7; 4 8; 5 6; 6 7; 7 8; 8 5]; 
numberNodes=size(nodeCoordinates,1);
numberElements=size(elementNodes,1);
etc....

****/

applied a nodal force on one of the nodes and BC and calculated the displacement. Yet, I want to have this whole structure into a series attached to each other. How can I do that? And how can I be sure that the displacements, forces from the structure is transferred to the next element-structure?

Thanks,

Kate
