Abstract | ||||
In today’s engineering design, extensive mathematical calculations / computational analysis are done, which requires powerful engineering software to facilitate and reduce the mathematical workload. This paper pertains to the development of a computer based learning software, named “STATOL®”, for understanding aircraft structures. The software is developed to analyse complex structures used in aircraft constructions, with an aim to facilitate understanding of such problems in a class and enable the user to perform parametric study to appreciate the effect of varying different input on the resultants. The computer code is written in Microsoft Visual Basic 6®. | ||||
