Civil Engineering Systems
Structural analysis is the process of determining the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. This involves understanding how different forces interact with materials and shapes, ensuring that structures can withstand these forces without failing. The methods used in structural analysis rely heavily on mathematical principles and numerical techniques, making connections to the fundamental concepts of linear algebra and matrices, as well as numerical methods for practical problem-solving in engineering.
