Extract

This paper presents a numerical method, derived directly from the basic differential equations of motion and expressed in the form of recurrence-matrix of finite differences, that can be generally applied to all multi-degree-of-freedom structures subjected to dynamic forces or forced displacements on any masses at any instants of time. The movements of the system may be described by any form of generalised co-ordinates.
