Abstract
This work is about a direct method for the static reanalysis
of structures. We use the concept of the reflexive
inverse to express a general solution of discrete structure
regardless of boundary conditions. We present a decomposition
method for the stiffness matrix in order to avoid
its inversion. We provide a comparison between the calculation
time of this method and the one taken by a traditional
approach. We also demonstrate the capability of
this method to solve reanalysis problems involving stiffness
modifications.
