9780198563693: Finite Elements for Solids, Fluids, and Optimization

Synopsis

The finite element method is a numerical procedure for solving ordinary and partial differential equations which arise in engineering and mathematical physics. This is a self-contained introduction to the theory and application of finite element methods in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, and optimization. The author's extensive experience of the application of finite element methods gives the book a practical slant. The text is illuminated with real worked examples. Care is taken to explain and demonstrate techniques for formulating finite element approaches to problems. Programming techniques for solving the resulting FEM problems are also thoroughly covered.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The finite element method is a numerical procedure for solving ordinary and partial differential equations which arise in engineering and mathematical physics. This is a complete self-contained introduction to the theory and applications of finite element methods in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, and optimization. The authors' extensive experience of the application of finite element methods gives the book a practical slant. Worked examples are scattered throughout the text. Care is taken to explain and demonstrate techniques for formatting finite element apparatus to problems. Programming techniques for solving the resulting FEM problems are also thoroughly covered. The book also contains 14 MegaBasic programs, ranging from very short introductory programs to more general programs for analysis and optimization of plane stress, plates, and shells, and fluid flows.

Revue de presse

'A self-contained textbook which ... introduces the basic theories of solid and fluid mechanics and proceeds to numerical methods and optimization techniques ... The whole is regarded as appropriate to a four year undergraduate enginerring course.' Richard laurence, Aslib Book Guide d
