Finite Elements for Analysis and Design: Computational Mathematics and Applications Series
(The finite element method (FEM) is an analysis tool for p...)
The finite element method (FEM) is an analysis tool for problem-solving used throughout applied mathematics, engineering, and scientific computing. Finite Elements for Analysis and Design provides a thoroughlyrevised and up-to-date account of this important tool and its numerous applications, with added emphasis on basic theory. Numerous worked examples are included to illustrate the material. Key Features * Akin clearly explains the FEM, a numerical analysis tool for problem-solving throughout applied mathematics, engineering and scientific computing * Basic theory has been added in the book, including worked examples to enable students to understand the concepts * Contains coverage of computational topics, including worked examples to enable students to understand concepts * Improved coverage of sensitivity analysis and computational fluid dynamics * Uses example applications to increase students' understanding * Includes a disk with the FORTRAN source for the programs cided in the text
