The discussion of calculation of beam deformation by the transfer matrix method

This paper introduces the fundamental principle and applied conditions on calculation of beam deformation by the transfer matrix method.Because the concept of transfer matrix method is very simple,the form is unified,computerization calculation is very convenint.It is important that combining the method with relative content of material mechanics,the fundamental concept of finite element method can be permeated on material mechanics.This inspired us greatly to bring forth new ideas to the content of the course.
