      An interpretation for computational solution is given for a new global extremum principle that models a generalized form of elastic/softening structural behavior. The principle and its interpretation are expressed in a form that accommodates arbitrary heterogeneity and anisotropy in the structural material. Also the stress-strain properties that reflect evolution of local softening are represented in the model by a set of parameters defined over the field of the structure. Thus, the model may be used to predict the general behavior of solid structures having non-uniform stress/strain fields that evolve with change in external load.
