The correct choice is (d) σ=E(Bq-αΔT)

Explanation: Stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other. After solving Finite element equations KQ=F for the displacements Q, the stress in each element can be obtained from equation.

σ=E(Bq-αΔT).
