- What is FEM?
- FEM is a powerful tool for
the numerical solution of a
wide range of engineering
problems.
- The basic concept in the physical
interpretation of the FEM is the sub-division
of the mathematical model into disjoint
(non-overlapping) components of simple
geometry called finite elements

- Boundary conditions
- Avoid the possibility of the structure moving as a rigid
body. Two approaches are used for handling specified
displacement boundary conditions.

- states that the actual displacement solution u(x) is that which renders Pi stationary

designed for analysing
- It enables users to solve a wide variety of
analyses in mechanical engineering
applications
- It is one of the finite element analysis
computer programming software.
- Finite Element Discretisation
- Decompose the TPE functional into a sum of
contributions of individual elements.
- The same decomposition applies to the internal and external energies, as
well as to the condition of MPEP
- Using the fundamental lemma of variational calculus, it can be
shown that implies that for a generic element
(e) we may write:
- This variational equation is the basis for the derivation of
element stiffness equations once the displacement field has
been discretised over a bar element.
