Unit 2 FEM PDF

The document appears to contain examples and solutions for analyzing systems of springs and nodes using finite element analysis. It includes 5 examples showing spring systems with fixed supports, attached weights or specified displacements. Each example provides the system diagram, conditions and asks the reader to determine displacements, forces or other unknown values. Numbers ranging from 1 to 31 are listed, possibly corresponding to example problems, figures, or solution steps.

Example : Consider the two element system depicted in Figure 2.2 given that Node 1 is attached to a fixed support,
yielding the displacement constraint U1 = 0. k1 = 50 lb./in., k2 = 75 lb./in., F2 = F3 = 75 lb. for these conditions determine
nodal displacements U2 and U3.

Example : Figure 2.4a depicts a system of three linearly elastic springs supporting three equal weights W
suspended in a vertical plane. Treating the springs as finite elements, determine the vertical displacement of
each weight.

Example : Figure 2.5 depicts a system of three linear spring elements connected as shown. The node and element
numbers are as indicated. Node 1 is fixed to prevent motion, and node 3 is given a specified displacement δ as
shown. Forces F2 = −F and F4 = 2F are applied at nodes 2 and 4. Determine the displacement of each node and the
force required at node 3 for the specified conditions.
