For the element shown below:
(a) Obtain the stiffness matrix. The nodal coordinates are given in units of millimeters. Assume plane stress conditions. Let E=210GPa,v=0.25, and t=10mm.
(b) Determine the element stresses x,y, and Txy using the following nodal displacements for the element:
u1=2.0mm,v1=1.0mm
u2=0.5mm,v2=0.0mm
u3=3.0mm,v3=1.0mm.
For the element shown below: ( a ) Obtain the
