The finite-element method was originally developed by engineers in the 1950s to analyze large structural systems for aircraft. Aimed at advanced level undergraduates of engineering and fluid mechanics and researchers, engineers and scientists in fluid mechanics, mechanical and chemical engineering, this text derives, develops and applies finite-element solution methodology directly to the differential equation systems governing distinct and practical problem classes in fluid mechanics. It is principally a text on fluid mechanics and the theory of its computational simulation, for those with a basic interest in fluid mechanics.

This text is intended for the student who is being introduced for the first time to the Finite Element Method (FEM). Written in a simple, easy to follow manner, the book is a practical guide for learning the basics of the method and applying them to a wide variety of problems. The book focuses on the practical applications of fundamental concepts, with special emphasis on fluid mechanics. Computational experiments are integrated throughout the text via example problems and exercises. A comprehensive finite element instructional computer code, written for the PC using standard FORTRAN 77, is used to support every basic step and solve the set of example problems. The coverage of numerical linear algebra presents a unique numerical scheme based on continuing finite element/finite difference methodologies.
