MANE 4240 CIVL 4240Introduction to Finite Elements Principles of minimum potential energy and Rayleigh-Ritz * Prof. Suvranu De Reading assignment: Section 2.6 + Lecture notes Summary: Potential energy of a system Elastic bar String in tension Principle of Minimum Potential Energy Rayleigh-Ritz Principle A generic problem in 1D Approximate solution strategy: Guess Where jo(x), j1(x),… are “known” functions and ao, a1, etc are constants chosen such that the approximate solution 1. Satisfies the boundary conditions 2. Satisfies the differential equation Too difficult to satisfy for general
