We must expand the column matrix on the extreme right-hand side of Equa-
tion 9.78 in terms of the discretized approximation to the displacements. Via
Equation 9.69, we have

where we reemphasize that the indicated partial derivatives are known functions
of the natural coordinates of the parent element. For shorthand notation, Equa-
tion 9.80 is rewritten as
u

in which [ P ] is the matrix of partial derivatives and {} is the column matrix of
nodal displacement components.
Combining Equations 9.78 and 9.81, we obtain the sought-after relation for
the strain components in terms of nodal displacement components as
{ ε }=
(9.82)
and, by analogy with previous developments, matrix [ B ] = [ G ][ P ] has been
determined such that
[ G ][ P ]
{}
{ ε } =
[ B ]

(9.83)
and the element stiffness matrix is defined by
k ( e ) =

[ B ] T [ D ][ B ]d A
