State space elastostatics of prismatic structures

This paper provides an exposition of the problem of a prismatic elastic rod or beam subject to static end loading only, using a state space formulation of the linear theory of elasticity. The approach, which employs the machinery of eigenanalysis, provides a logical and complete resolution of the tr...
