Finite Element Method of Analysis

VARIATIONAL METHODS

Structural Mechanics

represents the system of algebraic equations of equilibrium for the elastic system. These two equations do not yet reflect the presence of an essential boundary condition, and det(K) ≡ 0 and the system is singular. These relations were developed on physical arguments and did not involve any finite element theory. Next we will see that a onedimensional FEA yields the same forms.
