Formulation of Two-Dimensional Elasticity Problems Professor M. H. Sadd
Simplified Elasticity Formulations The General System of Elasticity Field Equations of 15 Equations for 15 Unknowns Is Very Difficult to Solve for Most Meaningful Problems, and So Modified Formulations Have Been Developed. Displacement Formulation Stress Formulation Eliminate the stresses and strains from the general system of equations. This generates a system of three equations for the three unknown displacement components. Eliminate the displacements and strains from the general system of equations. This generates a system of six equations and for the six unknown stress components.
