Abstract
Only linearized problems are considered in this section, ie linearized geometric relations and Hooke’s law are taken into account [see Eqs. (1.21) and (4.15)]. The consequences of these assumptions are illustrated by considering a linear elastic body loaded on its surface by a self-equilibrating system of single forces F 1 , F 2 , ..., F n , (reaction forces in the point supports are included). The loading is applied to the body by means of a common load factor λ , which is slowly increased from 0 ≤ λ ≤ 1 to reach the terminal configuration by passing successively through states of equilibrium. The displacement u i of a material point to the deformed state, the reference configuration is assumed free of stresses, is determined by the generalization of the linear law of a Hookean spring [see Eqs. (4.3) and (3.46)], and the common load factor λ cancels
where the influence coefficients a ij are independent of the load intensity. They depend on the location and direction of the displacement and they are functions of the points of application of the forces F j , as well as of their directions.
