    Notes: We suggest an exercise which illustrates many of the fundamental ideas of finite elements, and is nevertheless easily programmed and quickly solved. It is governed by a partial differential equation on a circular region, but by maintaining symmetry the stiffness matrix becomes small and tridiagonal. The accuracy of linear elements can be studied in detail, and a straightforward extension leads to the eigenvalue problem, elements of higher degree, numerical integration, isoparametric elements, and a simple example in plasticity.

    Notes: An algorithm is described which appears to give an efficient solution of nonlinear finite element equations. It is a quisi-Nowton method, and we compare it with some of the alternatives. Initial tests of its application to both material and geometric nonlinearities are discussed.

    Notes: A direct weight minimization subject to compliance constraints or plastic yielding constraints leads to a non-convex variational problem. Both the theoretical and the numerical analysis are unsatisfactory: the minimum weight is not achieved by any design, and the approximate designs oscillate as the element mesh is refined. We look for equivalent ‘relaxed problems’ with the same minima. They come from allowing composite materials constructed in an optimal way from the original materials. The constructions are different for elasticity and plasticity, but surprisingly the final relaxed problems are in some cases the same.

    Notes: We present a simple calculation which seems at first to yield erroneous results when natural boundary conditions are not enforced. Our example is the static deformation of a cantilever beam under uniform loading. The corresponding variational principle is established and two applications of the Rayleigh-Ritz-Galerkin method are made.(1)The deflection is expanded in a series of cosines. The energy is rendered stationary subject to all boundary conditions, geometric and natural (they are imposed through Lagrange multipliers). The resulting function is exactly the Fourier cosine expansion of the true deflection-which is a fourth-degree polynomial.(2)The deflection is again expanded in a cosine series but now the natural boundary conditions are ignored. The resulting series does not converge to the true solution.Owing to the simplicity of the coefficients, exact summations are possible and the discrepancy is clear. The disagreement is large, and the object of the paper is to decide which method is right.
