Abstract
This review covers the many applications of the Wittrick-Williams algorithm, which ensures that no critical buckling loads, or natural frequencies of undamped free vibration, are missed even when using the ‘exact’ member equations obtained by solving the appropriate differential equations. The review includes: plane and space frames; prismatic assemblies of isotropic or anisotropic plates, including in-plane plate shear loads; exact multi-level substructuring; design; damping; efficient solution of rotationally or linearly repetitive structures; use of Lagrangian multipliers; programmable pocket calculator methods; program listings for small computers and; references to large computer programs.
