Question 1
What is the governing relationship for a bar element?
- F = k * δ
- F = m * a
- E = σ/ε
💡 Hint: Think about how force is related to how much an element stretches.
Question 2
True or False: A stiffness matrix can be used to predict how a bar element will respond to external loads.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Remember what the stiffness matrix represents.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a bar element model with a specific Young's Modulus and cross-sectional area. Calculate the deformation when a known axial load is applied.
💡 Hint: Start by identifying all the values you know: force, E, A, and length.
Question 2
Create a two-dimensional framework using multiple bar elements. Describe how to set boundary conditions and conduct a finite element analysis.
💡 Hint: Consider where you might want to allow movement versus where to restrain it.
