as the stiffness matrix for a beam undergoing bending and extension. The sign convention
of Fig. 4.1b (Sign Convention 2) was used in constructing this stiffness matrix.
In the case of a bar undergoing bending and torsion, the stiffness matrix in a nondimen-
sional displacement form is (Sign Convention 2)

Transfer Matrices

Determination of Transfer Matrices
There are many approaches for deriving transfer matrices such as the one leading to Eq.
(4.8c). Some of the techniques are described in the references for this chapter. One of these
techniques is the direct integration of the governing equations, either using the higher order
or the first order system of governing equations.
