This advanced undergraduate and postgraduate text serves for courses in many engineering disciplines and professionals in industrial or academic research. It is written in a step-by-step methodological approach so that readers can acquire knowledge, either through formal engineering courses or by self-study. Also useful for industrial engineers as a reference manual. • Comprehensively reviews finite element techniques in structural mechanics, paying particular attention to matrix algebra, the matrix displacement method and vibration of structures, among other topics • Written in a step-by-step methodological approach so that readers can acquire knowledge, either through formal engineering courses or by self-study • Also useful as a reference manual

(Bridging the gap between theoretical texts and the massiv...)
Bridging the gap between theoretical texts and the massive and expensive software packages, this handbook covers finite element programming in a wide range of problems in mechanical, civil, aeronautical and electrical engineering. Comprehensive, it ranges from the static analysis of two- and three-dimensional structures to stress analysis of thick slabs on elastic foundations, and from two- and three- dimensional vibration analysis problems to two-dimensional field problems including heat transfer and acoustic vibrations. The 24 printouts of powerful and valuable engineering computer programs, written in QUICK BASIC, are introduced by a preliminary chapter giving useful hints and formulae intended for structural design. The programs are capable of analysing problems in engineering design and manufacture, with text fully describing how to use the computer programs for their particular problems or tasks. The finite element method is used in all the programs, and the problems for analysis can be of quite complex design and shape and with complex boundary conditions. • Covers finite element programming in a wide range of problems in mechanical, civil, aeronautical and electrical engineering • Ranges from the static analysis of two- and three-dimensional structures to stress analysis of thick slabs on elastic foundations
