Hu Washizu principle
In continuum mechanics, and in particular in finite element analysis, the Hu-Washizu principle is a variational principle which says that the action
![{\displaystyle \int _{V^{e}}\left[{\frac {1}{2}}\epsilon ^{T}C\epsilon -\sigma ^{T}\epsilon +\sigma ^{T}(\nabla u)-{\bar {p}}^{T}u\right]dV-\int _{S_{\sigma }^{e}}{\bar {T}}^{T}u\ dS}](../I/m/0c23c573ea9b14f18a5db311b742c2109b70d545.svg)
is stationary, where is the elastic stiffness tensor. The Hu-Washizu principle is used to develop mixed finite element methods.[1] The principle is named after Hu Haichang and Kyuichiro Washizu.
