  • Abstract
    A feasibility study of the use of an operational analog computer for solution of structural problems was undertaken. A beam problem and a rectangular multicellular structure problem were run to test the method. In this paper, which is a progress report, it is shown that the method is highly competitive with digital computer and passive-element computer methods for solution of any structural problem.
