    This document discusses boundary value problems in solid mechanics. It covers governing equations, pure bending of a prismatic cantilever beam as an example, and numerical methods for solving systems of partial differential equations that generally cannot be solved analytically. It also discusses one-dimensional problems, weak forms, function spaces, boundary conditions, variational methods, existence of energy forms, and weak forms in three dimensions.

    Chapter 5: Boundary value problems in solid mechanics

    Recall governing equations:

    Boundary Value Problem

    Example: Pure bending of a prismatic cantilever beam:


    (pages 250-255, Timoshenko & Goodier)

    Note: For a cross section at z = c:

    Note: For the lateral surfaces of the beam:

    (See. 101 from Timoshenko & Goodier)

    These systems of PDEs, cannot be solved analytically, in general.


    We use numerical methods and use simplifying assumptions.
    Simplifying Assumptions:

    Example: 2D Plane Problems

    One-dimensional (1D) little BVP
    To understand how to obtain numerical solutions
    to complicated 2D/3D problems in general, let's
    first study some 1-D problems where we can
    usually obtain exact solutions.
