The reader is urged to note that, in arriving at the last result, we partition the global matrix
as shown by the dashed lines and apply Equation 3.46a to obtain the equations governing
the “active” degrees of freedom. That is, the partitioned matrix is of the form
K cc
T c
T a
F c
F a
K ca
=
K ac
K aa
where the subscript c denotes terms associated with constrained (specified) temperatures
and the subscript a denotes terms associated with active (unknown) temperatures. Hence,
this 6 × 6 system represents
[ K aa ] { T a }={ F a }− [ K ac ] { T c }
which now properly includes the effects of specified temperatures as forcing functions on
the right-hand side.
