			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The two main programs that I&#8217;ve developed in Visual Basic are now available <a href="/programming/visual-basic/">here</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>FEBeam: a finite element beam analysis package;</li>
<li>TrussMaster: a truss analysis package.</li>
</ul>
<p>These programs are close to fully-fledged but there are still some rough edges. Also made available are:</p>
<ul>
<li>TrussGenerator: an auxilliary program to TrussMaster;</li>
<li>Steel Section DB: a steel sections database in VB;</li>
<li>Graph Displacements: of a beam element;</li>
<li>Operations: machine-dependent operator timing (+,-,x,/).</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="/programming/cpp/">C++ section</a> of the website has been updated with many small programs available for download:</p>
<ul>
<li>Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm;</li>
<li>Runge-Kutta, 4th order program;</li>
<li>Generalized Extreme Value distribution fitting program;</li>
<li>Machine Epsilon calculator;</li>
<li>Matrix class based on STL;</li>
<li>Monte Carlo calculation of pi;</li>
<li>Square root of a matrix program;</li>
<li>Steelbeam analysis program.</li>
</ul>
<p>The <a href="/programming/visual-basic/">Visual Basic section</a> has also been updated, with some nice little apps and scripts for download:</p>
<ul>
<li>Recently Used Files module;</li>
<li>EC5 Joist design program;</li>
<li>Linear Simultaneous Equations solution program;</li>
<li>Stochastic Beam Design program.</li>
</ul>
<p>Some of the above programs are basic whilst others have hard-to-find algorithms encoded. If you check a program out give me some feedback!</p>
