Maxwell's reciprocal theorem
Maxwell's reciprocal theorem
(OP)
Because Maxwells proof is based purely on energy, am I correct in assuming that his theorem applies to non linear structures?
i ask the question because so much discussion on previous threads appears to assume that linear elastic behaviour is a pre requisite to the application of the theory

RE: Maxwell's reciprocal theorem
So no...it is not defined for non-linear conditions.
