    This chapter discusses energy methods for solving problems using variational principles. It introduces the weak form of governing equations and variational principles. It then describes several methods of weighted residuals including the collocation method, subdomain method, least squares method, method of moments, and Galerkin's method. Examples are provided to illustrate applying these methods to problems involving a uniform bar, heat conduction, and strings. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the Rayleigh-Ritz method and potential energy method along with further examples.
