Capital structure is one of the most complex areas of financial decision making because of its inter-relationship with other financial decision variables. Poor capital structure decisions can result in a high cost of capital which decreases the value of ...

Nodal rotations are produced by bending and shear effects and bending rotations can be easily calculated using Euler?Bernoulli?s stiffness matrix method. Nevertheless, shear rotations are traditionally neglected, as their effects are practically negligib...
