Hi,
Re Example 11.9 from Klaus-Jurgen Bathe's Finite Element Procedures textbook,
in first sweep, I could get big lambda and big phi,
in second sweep, I could get big lambda, but failed getting big phi,
in third sweep, I could get big lambda, but failed getting big phi,
Does this make sense? How can I get the correct big phi in second and third sweep?
If needed, I can post my calculations.

So, here's a link to my calculations for the second sweep:
