Abstract :

The paper concentrates to present finite element formulation of equilibrium problem in one dimension employing lower to higher-order finite elements and the development of the relevant software based on the explicit schemes. Present formulation is new and the elements of order one to tenth are considered and element matrices are presented in such a way that the code in any computer language can be developed easily. Finally, the efficiency and accuracy tested through the demonstration of application examples.
