Compatibility Condition
For the value of the redundant that satisfies the equilibrium equation and compatibility,
the strain energy of the structure is a maximum or minimum.
MI NI MUM
The magnitude of the redundants of a statically indeterminate structure
must be such that the strain energy (internal work) is a minimum (the least).
