Abstract:
The concept of elastic parameters, defining mathematical relations between elastic properties of the member and its elastic parameters, is presented. It is further shown that integration of the concept into the elastic-center method substantially shortens and simplifies analysis of frames and arches of variable cross section. So that the concept and its application may be fully appreciated, a number of examples are presented.
