  • Circuit Theorems Part 1

    An alternative method is to use superposition to find the deflection. Basically, a complex beam with its loading is simplified to a series of basic beams (one span) and with only one load. Then the solution to all the simplified beams are added together to give a final solution.


    LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 

    • To explain superposition method.
    • To explain source transformation method.
