Y Assume suitable data if necessary. 1, What are the major steps in Finite Element Method (FEM), What are the application of FEM. Four rigid bodies, 1, 2, 3 and 4 are connected by four springs as shown in the figure below. A horizontal force of 1,000 N is applied on body 1 as shown in the figure. Using FE analysis, (a) find the displacements of the two bodies (1 and 3), and (b) the reaction force at the right wall (body 2). Assume the bodies can undergo only translation in the horizontal direction. The spring constants (N/mm) are ki = 400, kz = 500, ks = 500 and ky= 300. [8] 4) 3.
