CVL634: Prestressed Concrete Design - Programming Assignment

The student who wishes to get bonus points for improving the CA marks can submit programming assignment listed below.
  1. Write a program to draw the variation of prestress due to the losses along the length of the member.
  2. Write a program to draw the line of pressure in a prestressed concrete member
  3. Write a program to calculation deflection and draw the deflected shape of a prestressed concrete member for different cable profile (Atleast 2)
  4. Write a program to perform limit state analysis of a prestressed concrete section to find the Ultimate Moment of resistance (Iterative - Strain compatibility method)
  5. Write a program to calculate eccentricity using Magnel's Graphical Method.
  6. Write a program to plot the trajectories of principal stresses in a prestressed concrete member.
The first four submissions only will be given bonus points as per the following criteria
  1. First Submission - 10 points
  2. Second Submission - 7 points
  3. Third Submission - 5 points
  4. Fourth Submission - 3 marks
The choice of the programming language lies with the student. The programs should be well commented, interactive and self explanatory.
The program can be submitted through email (ruban.sugumar@sharda.ac.in).
Note: More topics may be added in future. Keep updated.
