What is Finite Element Methods in Civil Engineering about?
The document discusses the Rayleigh-Ritz method which is frequently used in elastic analysis. It uses the principle of minimum potential energy. The total potential energy expression is formulated and the displacement pattern is assumed to vary with a finite set of undetermined parameters. A set of simultaneous equations is set up to minimize the total potential energy with respect to these parameters. The finite element process is identical to the Rayleigh-Ritz process except that in finite elements, the d
