FEA
(Assignment I)
BTME/BTMA
Attempt all problems
Question ONE
a. Obtain the global stiffness matrix K of the assemblage shown in Figure Q1 by
superimposing the stiffness matrices of the individual springs. Here k1 k2, and k3 are the
stiffnesses of the springs as shown.
b. If nodes 1 and 2 are fixed and a force P acts on node 4 in the positive x direction, find
an expression for the displacements of nodes 3 and 4.
c. Determine the reaction forces at nodes 1 and 2.

Question TWO

For the bar assemblages shown in Fig Q2a and Fig Q2b, determine the nodal displacements,
forces, stress in each element, and the reactions. Use the direct stiffness method for these
problems.
