Merge Mechanics of structures date September 2010 Structural mechanics is the computation of deformation engineering deformation s, deflection s, and internal force s or stress physics stress es stress equivalents within structures, either for design or for performance evaluation of existing structures. It is one subset of structural analysis. Structural mechanics analysis needs input data such as structural load s, the List of structural elements structure s geometric representation and support conditions, and the materials properties. Output quantities may include support reactions, Stress physics stresses and Displacement vector displacements . Advanced structural mechanics may include the effects of stability and non linear behaviors. There are three approaches to the analysis the Energy principles in structural mechanics energy methods , flexibility method or direct stiffness method which later developed into finite element method in structural mechanics finite element method and the plastic analysis approach.

Unreferenced date August 2009 Structural deficit forms part of the public sector deficit . Structural deficit differs from cyclical deficit in that it exists even when the economy is at its potential. Structural deficit issues can only be addressed by explicit and direct government policies reducing spending including entitlements , increasing the tax base, and or increasing tax rates. It can be described as more chronic or long term in nature hence needing government action to remove it. In Structural Deficit, the government spends money on the future of the country for example Infrastructure. If the government thinks that the investment in Infrastructure now may yield better returns in the long run, they borrow money and spend on it. This borrowed money, if continued to be more than the revenues generated by the government through tax and other means , cause the Structural Deficit for the country. The opposite of a structural deficit is a structural surplus . Likewise, the opposite of a cyclical deficit is a cyclical surplus .
