[3] A two-dimensional plane triangular element is subjected to a linearly varying edge pressure and the weight as body force as shown in Figure. Evaluate the stiffness matrix and the consistent load vectors if Young's modulus, E=210GPa, Poisson's ratio, v=0.3, and density, =0.5kgm3. Assume the element thickness t=1m and the pressure P changes linearly from 0 at node 1 to 150 Pa at node 3. Consider plane stress and plane strain cases.
