  • Abstract
    Computational structures technology (CST), which blends structural modeling with computational methods and is an outgrowth of matrix methods used to analyze the dynamic and static responses of structures, is reviewed. The authors summarize CST´s history and status, emphasizing software development, goals, and promising research areas. Example applications of CST from the aerospace field are presented.<>
