What every engineer should know about computational techniques of finite element analysis
1 online resource (xiii, 378 pages) : illustrations (some color)
"This book is a concise, self-contained treatment of the finite element method and all the computational techniques needed for its efficient use and practical implementation. The book describes the process of transforming the physical problem into a mathematical model, the reduction of the mathematical model to numerically solvable computational form, and many practical engineering analysis solution techniques applied in various industries. The first edition of this book was published in 2004, two decades ago. Since then, finite element analysis (FEA) has become a fundamental component of product development software tools (CAD, CAE, CAM) used in many industrial fields of engineering, particularly in mechanical and aerospace engineering. It has also become a popular text in CSE (Computational Science in Engineering) and applied mathematics courses in academia, one of the reasons for the new edition. Key Features: Finite element analysis is a fundamental component of product development software tools which are used in many industrial fields of engineering. This book serves as a to-the-point guide for implementing FEA for beginners and everyday users. Presents finite element solutions to advanced industrial applications like heat transfer, wave propagation, topology optimization and fluid dynamics. Describes the transformation of the physical problem into a mathematical model, reduction of the model to a more efficient, numerically solvable form, and the solution of the problem using specific computational techniques. Provides you with a walk-through of the process from the physical model to the computed solution"--
