We are going to consider the forces exerted on a material. These can be external or internal. External forces come in two flavors: body forces(given per unit mass or volume) and surface forces(given per unit area). If we cut a body of material in equilibrium under a set of external forces along a plane as shown in fig. 1. and consider one side of it we draw two conclusions: 1 the equilibrium provided by the loads from the side taken out is provided by a set of forces that are distributed among the material particles adjacent to

The work of the external forces in the spring system of the figure is given by W=B*(U1+U2+U3)(2) W=P1*U1+P2米U2+B米U3(3) None of the above statements

What do you think the eigenvectors of the element stiff- ness matrix represent? 1. a basis in which the stiffness matrix would be diago- nal (if rotated to that basis) 2. a set of nodal displacements for the element corre-

How can the paradox with the spring be plained? In other words, which of the following statements is true 1. Equilibrium can be derived from the equiv alence of the external and the internal work 2. Equilibrium is an artifact of our imagina- tion

What new element is Castigliano s Theorem introducing? 1. None, it's just a particular case of the PMPE 2. It's a totally different principle that allows to obtain solutions of elasticity problems with unprecedented accuracy and efficiency in- cluding relativistic effects

Why is the element stiffness matrix singular in a finite element formulation? 1. So that it can accomodate rigid element dis- placements without introducing spurious nodal 2 Because we made a mistake in the formula- tion the stiffness matrix should not be sin- g 3. Because we havent enforced any displace ment boundary conditions(it's a variational approach after all) Statement(1)

Concept Question Which of the following statements is true 1. The PVD and the PMPE are equivalent 2. The PVD is more general 3. The PMPE applies to any kind of material 4. The stationary character of the potential en ergy is equivalent to the Pvd for elastic ma terials

which generalizes to the statement. This reduces the number of material constants from 81 to 54. In a similar fashion we can make use of the symmetry of the strain tensor This further reduces the number of material constants to 36. To further reduce the number of material constants consider the conclusion from the first law for elastic materials, equation
