The reaction on the left end is not exact because 1. The order of interpolation is too low, a higher order of interpolation would give the right reaction 2. The distributed load attributed to node one does not ke it into the solution

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
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 of the following statements is correct? 1. The PVD only applies to linear elastic materials 2. The PVD applies only to elastic materials, but they can be linear or non-linear 3. The PVD applies regardless of the constitutive behavior of the material
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
