The frame below is loaded as shown with two forces P at D. Given P, E, I, cross-sectional area A, Young's modulus E, and length l.
Neglect any contributions due to transverse shear and determine the following using Castigliano's method:
a) the angular rotation at C,
b) the vertical deflection at D.
Important: Expand the integrals as much as possible, but you do NOT need to solve for the integrals.
