Abstract
A theoretical method for representing the physical characteristics
of a portion of a mechanical piping system in terms of a stiffness
matrix involving only those joints at which the sub-system is connected
into the overall system is presented herein. The use of this method in
reducing the size of the matrices that are needed for finding the normal
vibration frequencies of a piping system is discussed, and an outline for
a digital computer program to use this method is presented.
