A finite element model of a rod (bar), with two quadratic elements as shown below is considered. The model composed of two quadratic elements and five nodes. The length of the bar is L=64 cm. Determine the vector B (strain-displacement vector) for node 1 (in 1/m). If the vector B can be written in the form of B = [a b c], then what is the value of term a (in 1/m) ? (Hint: Type your answer with 4 digits after decimal point).
