Combinatorial Methods for the Formation of Sparse Flexibility Matrices

Ali Kaveh, G.R. Roosta · Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering · 1997

Two algorithms are designed for the formation of cycle bases of the graph models of rigid–jointed skeletal structures leading to sparse flexibility matrices. These combinatorial methods employ the Greedy Algorithm for the formation of suboptimal cycle bases with the least possible lengths.
