  1. NUMERICAL INTEGRATION • Stiffness matrix and distributed load calculations involve integration over the domain • In many cases, analytical integration is very difficult • Numerical integration based on Gauss Quadrature is commonly used in finite element programs • Gauss Quadrature: • Integral is evaluated using function values and weights. • si: Gauss integration points, wi: integration weights • f(si): function value at the Gauss point • n: number of integration points.

  2. ONE INTEGRATION POINT • Constant Function: f(s) = 4 • Use one integration point s1 = 0 and weight w1 = 2 Why? • The numerical integration is exact. • Linear Function: f(s) = 2s + 1 • Use one integration point s1 = 0 and weight w1 = 2 • The numerical integration is exact. • One-point Gauss Quadrature can integrate constant and linear functions exactly.

  3. TWO POINTS AND MORE • Quadratic Function: f(s) = 3s2 + 2s + 1 • Let’s use one-point Gauss Quadrature • One-point integration is not accurate for quadratic function • Let’s use two-point integration with w1 = w2 = 1 and -s1 = s2 = • Gauss Quadrature points and weights are selected such that n integration points can integrate (2n – 1)-order polynomial exactly.

  4. GAUSS QUADRATURE POINTS AND WEIGHTS • What properties do positions and weights have?

  5. General interval • In general we will have • From Wikipedia

  6. t t t s s s (a) 11 (b) 22 (c) 33 TWO DIMENSIONAL INTEGRATION • multiplying two one-dimensional Gauss integration formulas • Total number of integration points = m×n.

  7. EXAMPLE 6.9 • Integrate the following polynomial: • One-point formula • Two-point formula

  8. EXAMPLE 6.9 • 3-point formula • 4-point formula • 4-point formula yields the exact solution. Why?

  9. Quiz-like problems • When can’t you use Gaussian quadrature and must fall back on methods such as Simpson’s rule? • Estimate the integral with one and two points and compare to the exact value • What are the coordinates of the integration point at the bottom right corner of the 3x3 Gaussian quadrature points shown in the figure • Solution on the notes page

  10. APPLICATION TO STIFFNESS MATRIX • Application to Stiffness Matrix Integral
