where h m = (h 1 + h 2 + h 3 )/3 is the mean thickness. This also happens to be the thickness at the centroid.

EXERCISE 15.3 Use (15.26). The integral with monomial exponents i = 3, j = k = 0 evaluates to 6A/60;
that with i = 2, j = 1, k = 0 to 2A/60; and that with i = j = k = 1 to A/60. The x forces vanish: f xi = 0,
i = 1, 2, 3. For the y forces:
A
b y1 (6h 1 + 2h 2 + 2h 3 ) + b y2 (2h 1 + 2h 2 + h 3 ) + b y3 (2h 1 + h 2 + 2h 3 )

f y2 and f y3 follow by 3-cyclic permutation. Verification for b y1 = b y2 = b y3 = b y and h 1 = h 2 = h 3 = h
gives h Ab y /3 at the three corners, which is the element-by-element lumping.

Here L 21 =
f x1 = 16 h L 21 (2qx1 + qx2 ),
f x2 = 16 h L 21 (qx1 + 2qx2 ),
f y1 = 16 h L 21 (2q y1 + q y2 ),
f y2 = 16 h L 21 (q y1 + 2q y2 ),

f x3 = f y3 = 0.

Solutions to Exercises
motion along x and consequently the element node forces obtained from fe = Ke ue must be exactly zero.
These forces are the sum of columns 1, 3 and 5. A similar result is obtained for columns 2, 4 and 6 on switching
x and y. Since the stiffness matrix is symmetric, the same result holds on replacing columns by rows.
(The result extends to any mechanical finite element.)
