For a particular case, retain only those terms corresponding to the actual boundary condi-
tions for the problem. We see that the free parameters
w can be found from
[ k u

R p

R u

EXAMPLE 7.10 Beam with Linearly Varying Loading
To illustrate the use of a trial function which does not satisfy all boundary conditions, we
return again to the beam of Fig. 7.1. As the first choice of a trial function, use
