Description
This comprehensive guide to linear static and dynamic finite element methodology is designed for engineering and physical science students. Based on courses taught at leading institutions, it covers fundamental concepts and practical computer implementations.
The book ranges from introductory material on the mathematical theory of finite elements to advanced topics such as algorithms for time-dependent phenomena and variational formulations for diverse classes of initial/boundary-value problems.
With a focus on providing a thorough understanding of the subject, this text is suitable for students without in-depth mathematical training. It also includes unique components that make it an ideal primer for more advanced works on finite element analysis.
