Concept Question Which of the following statements is correct? Uo=U for ALL elastic materials(1 Uo=OijEij-U0 ONLY for linear elastic materials Jo=-ijEii for a nonlinear elastic material Statements(1) and 3)

Which of the following statements is correct? 1. The PVD only applies to linear elastic materials 2. The PVD applies only to elastic materials, but they can be linear or non-linear 3. The PVD applies regardless of the constitutive behavior of the material

Unit #10- Principle of minimum potential energy and Castigliano's First Theorem Principle of minimum potential energy The principle of virtual displacements applies regardless of the constitutive law. Restrict attention to elastic materials(possibly nonlinear). Start from the Pvd

Constitutive Law(6 equations, O unknowns) C Bound dary conditions of two types Traction or natural boundary conditions: For tractions t imposed on the portion of the surface of the body aBt Displacement or essential boundary conditions: For displacement

Which of the following expressions most ac curately and simply represents the comple mentary strain energy density Uc of a linear elastic material?

Extend definition to material bodies: total work is the addition of the work done on all particles by forces distributed over the volume W by forces distributed over the surface t·udS

How can the paradox with the spring be plained? In other words, which of the following statements is true 1. Equilibrium can be derived from the equiv alence of the external and the internal work 2. Equilibrium is an artifact of our imagina- tion

Strain energy and potential energy of a beam brec sedans hoMe the neutra xxis remain So Figure 1: Kinematic assumptions for a beam Kinematic assumptions for a beam: From the figure: AA'=u3(a1) Assume small deflections: B B\,BB\=3+ duy

which generalizes to the statement. This reduces the number of material constants from 81 to 54. In a similar fashion we can make use of the symmetry of the strain tensor This further reduces the number of material constants to 36. To further reduce the number of material constants consider the conclusion from the first law for elastic materials, equation

Which of the following expressions represents the rate of work done by the stresses during the deformation of a body of an arbitrary material?
