Home Work 1 (Sheet 1) : Problem 1

This document appears to contain solutions to multiple homework problems involving matrices and systems of equations relating to structural analysis. Problem 1 involves taking the inverse of a matrix. Problem 2 calculates deflections of a structure using equilibrium equations and geometry. Problem 3 finds reactions and deflections at a point using similar techniques. Problem 4 calculates elongations and uses equilibrium to solve for an unknown force.

Thus


Another Solution Method (Superposition )
From Equilibrium

()
Assuming that the problem is superposition of two problems, first one without Support A so
that the body will expand freely under the load, and the second one with load acting instead of
support A.
