| Abstract | The solution of two-dimensional stress problems using a model lattice framework analogous to that of the prototype structure was investigated. Standard components were designed
from which the model frameworks could be conveniently constructed
and the deformations of the individual members measured. The extremely close tolerances required made mass production of these components impractical with the machines available and
this investigation was therefore restricted to a 2 x 2 square
lattice. A direct comparison was made between the measured
deformations and those obtained from a mathematical analysis of the idealized 2x2 lattice to investigate the behavior of the mechanical model. Four plane stress problems for which numerical solutions were available were subsequently investigated using this model. |
