In a numerical solution, this displacement field istypically a function of some unknown parameters (a1,a2,…) – Express the potential energy as a function of the unknown parameters a1,a2,… – Minimize the potential energy by finding the appropriate set of parameters(a1,a2,…) for the minimum – generally yields approximate solution – The actual solution is given by the displacement field that yields a total minimum of the potential energy. Otherwise, an approximate solution is obtained • Minimum complementary energy approach:Select a guess for a force field; the only condition that must be satisfied is that it is statically admissible.
