Résumé : The purpose of this paper is to perform modal analysis of truss by finite element method. The truss studied has 13 degrees of freedom, which led to mass matrix and stiffness tedious. The Matlab computer tool made it possible to carry out the matrix calculation and to realize the graphical representation of the displacement of the nodes of the truss for each mode of vibration. This representation illustrates the modal deformation of the truss.
