stresses within each element

NOTES
1. Assume that there is no stiffness in the local y direction.
2. If you consider the displacement at a point along the local x
direction as a vector, then the components of that vector along the
global x and y directions are the global x and y displacements.
3. The expanded stiffness matrix in the local coordinates is
symmetric and singular.

Steps in solving a problem
Step 1: Write down the node-element connectivity table
linking local and global nodes; also form the table of
direction cosines (l, m)
Step 2: Write down the stiffness matrix of each element in
global coordinate system with global numbering
Step 3: Assemble the element stiffness matrices to form the
global stiffness matrix for the entire structure using the
node element connectivity table
Step 4: Incorporate appropriate boundary conditions
Step 5: Solve resulting set of reduced equations for the unknown
displacements
Step 6: Compute the unknown nodal forces
