What is Paradigms in Structural Mechanics Solutions about?

The document discusses three competing paradigms for how the Rayleigh-Ritz and finite element methods approximate solutions to continuum mechanics problems: 1) The methods satisfy the differential equations and boundary conditions more closely with more terms/elements. 2) The methods approximate the displacement field more accurately with refinement. 3) The document argues that the methods actually seek to find the "best-fit" state of stress/strain first, and then compute displacements from these.
