1D Rod Elements
To understand and solve 2D and 3D
problems we must understand basic of 1D
problems.
Analysis of 1D rod elements can be done
using Rayleigh-Ritz and Galerkins method
To solve FEA problems same are modified
in the Potential-Energy approach and
Galerkins approach
1D Rod Elements
Loading consists of three types : body
force f , traction force T, point load P
i
Body force: distributed force , acting on
every elemental volume of body i.e. self
weight of body.
Traction force: distributed force , acting on
surface of body i.e. frictional resistance,
viscous drag and surface shear
Point load: a force acting on any single
point of element
