Statics and Strength of Materials
Castigliano's Theorem states that the partial derivative of the total strain energy of a structure with respect to a specific load gives the displacement at the point of application of that load. This principle helps in analyzing complex structures, particularly in understanding how loads affect deflections and internal forces within statically indeterminate systems.
congrats on reading the definition of Castigliano's Theorem. now let's actually learn it.
