Analysis of truss structures using distributed object-oriented methods. (English) Zbl 0864.73065

Objected-oriented analysis methods are developed for distributed finite element analysis of truss structures. The method is based on distributed solution of finite element equations using the substructuring method. Objects for static analysis of truss structures are identified and presented in a pseudocode form. The developed techniques are implemented in a network of workstations. A software tool called the IDL-C++ compiler has been developed to aid the programmer in constructing distributed object applications.
