Introduction to the Finite Element Method – Description
Consider the structural system represented in the figure below, which consists of a deformable bar (flexion stiffness EI) with four supports (two simple and two elastic – stiffness K) and subjected to a uniform compression of value P. Making the assumptions that you find necessary, use the finite element method to calculate the variation of the critical load value with the stiffness K.
