This lecture covers the application of finite elements in structural mechanics, focusing on theories related to beams, plates, and shells. Topics include Bernoulli's principle, continuity between elements, and various unknowns and variables. The lecture also discusses the concept of thin structures and the equilibrium equations for bending moments and shear forces.
