Fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis: Linear Finite Element Analysis

Rate this book
"Fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis: Linear Finite Element Analysis" is an introductory textbook which covers thetheoretical foundations and the implementation of the finite element method (FEM).It focuses on the use of the method for linear problems, in which the finite element approximation transforms a problem governed by differential equations into linear algebraic problems requiring the solution of linear systems of equations. While the primary focus is on solid and structural mechanics and dynamics, the case of heat conduction is also examined.

"Fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis: Linear Finite Element Analysis" provides an introduction to programming analysis for discrete systems, the concepts on strong form and weak form, and the use of a finite element approximation into the weak form to convert a differential/integral equation into a system of linear algebraic equations. A chapter covering the practical aspects of the method when applied to linear elastic static problems is also included. A companion website hosting source codes is also provided.
