What is Finite Element Formulation Overview about?

The document describes developing a finite element formulation using the potential energy method. It begins by discretizing a 1D bar into finite elements. A trial displacement function is assumed for each element that is linear between nodes. The total potential energy of each element is derived as a function of the nodal displacements. Equating the derivatives of potential energy to zero yields the finite element equations at each node. A similar process is described for developing a 1D heat transfer finit
