Politecnico di Milano Computational Biomechanics Laboratoy Final Exam (Call: 22/2/2018) Problem 1 (12pts) Consider a the linear elastic one-dimensional bar subjected to an axial load, F (see Figure 1). The bar has a cross sectional area A = 1000 mm 2, and Young’s modulus E = 210 GPa. If the bar is discretized with one two-node linear element as shown, determine: 100 mm A B F 100 mm 1 2 F y x y x Figure 1: Problem 1. 1.
