Hu-Washizu Variational Principle[edit | edit source]
In this case, the admissible states are not required to meet any of the field equations or boundary conditions.
Let denote the set of all admissible states and let be a functional on defined by
for every .
Then,
at an admissible state if and only if is a solution of the mixed problem.
