Increasing use is being made of commercial software to demonstrate the applications of finite element theory to mechanical or structural design. This book is aimed at those who are new to using commercially available finite element software for mechanical or structural design and those who are contemplating using this software. It emphasizes the practicalities of modelling with commercial software rather than the theory of finite elements. A step-by-step approach is used to describe the analysis process and a series of teaching examples, using simple test cases and real engineering probelms, are provided to complement this.

This work provides an detailed explanation of the process of producing computer solutions to industrial flow problems, illustrating widely-used CFD modelling techniques to the non-specialized user. Detailed case-studies and worked examples are provided, and there are guides to the availability of, and best use of, software and hardware.
