Dummy load method (Unit load method)
The dummy load method is particularly powerful for case where deflections are
required at points where no external load is applied or in directions different from
those of the applied loads.
Here, an imaginary (fictitious) load P is introduced at the required point; the
bending moment is evaluated, strain energy is calculated, the deflection is
evaluated with respect to this imaginary load using the Castigliano’s method and at
last this fictitious load is set to Zero to obtain the result.
