Question

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

IIT Kharagpur · Accepted Answer

If a structure is acted upon by two force system P_a and P_b, in equilibrium separately, the external virtual work done by a system forces P_b during the deformations caused by another system of forces P_a is equal to the external virtual work done by the P_a system during the deformation caused by the P_b system.

IIT Kharagpur · Answer

If a linearly elastic structure is subjected to a set of loads, the partial derivative of the total strain energy with respect to the load at any point is equal to the deflection at that point.

IIT Kharagpur · Answer

The shear force in a conjugate beam loaded by the M/El diagram of the real beam is equal to the corresponding deflection of the real beam.

IIT Kharagpur · Answer

If a linearly elastic structure is subjected to a set of loads the partial derivative of the total strain energy with respect to the deflection at any point is equal to the load applied at that point.
