Structural Analysis Introduction

Structural analysis determines the behavior of structures under loads. Key concepts include forces, moments, equilibrium, and deformation.
Example
// Structural Analysis Basics
class StructuralAnalysis {
    // Basic Forces
    static double axialForce = 10000;  // N
    static double shearForce = 5000;    // N
    static double bendingMoment = 100000; // N.mm
    
    // Stress Calculations
    static double area = 1000;         // mm²
    static double stress = axialForce / area; // MPa
    
    // Strain
    static double length = 1000;       // mm
    static double deltaL = 1;          // mm
    static double strain = deltaL / length;
    
    // Modulus of Elasticity (Steel)
    static double E = 200000; // MPa
    
    // Stress-Strain Relationship
    static double stress_calc = E * strain;
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("=== Structural Analysis ===");
        System.out.println("Axial Stress: " + stress + " MPa");
        System.out.println("Strain: " + strain);
        System.out.println("Stress from Strain: " + stress_calc + " MPa");
    }
