The matrix stiffness method is the basis of almost all commercial structural analysis programs. It is a specific case of the more general finite element method, and was in ... Using the basic relationship that force is equal to stiffness times displacement, we can determine the force at node 1 as: ( ) 1 Fk = net displacement at 1. Thus: ( ) 1 1 ...
