Assignment title: Information


For this assessment item, you must produce MATLAB code which: 1. Solves the set of simultaneous equations (1)–(5) to determine the unknown forces. 2. Determines which member has the largest magnitude force. 3. Reports to the Command Window which member has the largest magnitude force and the value of the force in that member. 4. Produces a plot that visualises the force in each member. A minimum requirement is to plot the forces; for maximum marks, the truss itself will be plotted with each member coloured so that the colour represents the value of force. 5. Has appropriate comments throughout. You must also solve the set of simultaneous equations by hand to verify your code; submit this working in a pdf file. Your MATLAB code must test (verify) whether the computed values of forces are the same as calculated by hand
