Summary

This paper presents the flexure functions of some triangular sections, subjected to terminal loads, obtained by using a simple electric analogy technique. The effect on the flexure function of both the shape of the section and Poisson’s ratio of the material has been investigated; examples also include some interesting doubly-connected sections. Flexibility of the analogy technique is indicated.
