    Name’ « | IRWTHAACHEN | UNIVERSITY -sotr-ave Exam: Foundations of FEM for Engineers / FEM for Engineers Mock exam II ‘Time: 90 minutes Problem 1 (24 Points) ‘The beam structure shown below is to be analysed for displacements. The structure is completely fixed at nodes 1 and 3. Both members of the structure are made of the same material (E) and have the same geometric properties (A, I). The geometric and material properties of each clement are as follows: Figure 1: The beam structure under consideration » Element 1: A = 10mm?, I = 10mm!, cosa A=10mm?, I = 10mm, cosa = 08, sina = 0, sina = 1.0, E = 10°N/mm? Element 2. 6, E = 10°N/mm? We use Euler-Bernoulli beam elements to describe the problem. The general element stiffness ‘matrix for such an element is given by: wm wm 6 uy wy w 0 Oo -+ 0 O 0 6 ay Oo -6 a re; _ 2ET 0 -3L 21 Oo 3L LF Psa |= fol 0) go) oo | % 0 -6 3b 0 6 3L Oo -3b LF 0 3h 207 Here, us and uw; denote the displacements of the node, while 0 isthe rotation angle. Use this clement stiffness matrix wherever necessary and 1. Formulate the correct transform: ation matrix required to convert the elemental equations into global ones, (3P) % ‘Mopmulate the global sifiness matrix K in terms of Ks in the global coordinate system. (2P) 3. Write the geometric boundary conditions. (3P) lary conditions into account and (7P) component of the reduced force vector in the global coordinate (oP) 4. Reduce the global stiffness matrix K by taking the bound calculate only Ki of this reduced stiffness matrix. 5. Calculate the F, and Fy system, Problem 2 (16 Points) F tr matt mat-2 mat-3 Figure 2: Fixed bar t length of bars are § each, ‘The clamped bar is made up of three different materials as shown, Th Es, Loads are subjected and relation between the elastic modulus of the bars is Ei = 32 = as shown in the figure. 1. Please calculate all needed piecewise defined linear shape functions (4P) 2, Please calculate the displacement of the clamped bar using Galerkin and the finite element (12P) method and the above obtained shape functions.
