A unique, hands-on introduction to the Finite Element Method
Fundamental Finite Element Analysis and Applications: with Mathematica® and MATLAB® Computations is an innovative, practical guide to discovering the Finite Element Method (FEM). Providing a helpful balance between theory and application, it presents the FEM as a tool to find approximate solutions of differential equations, making it a useful resource for students from a variety of disciplines.
Using a unique combination of live Mathematica® and MATLAB® implementations, along with problems in both ANSYS® and ABAQUS® formats, this hands-on book reveals the logic behind the equations to facilitate a full understanding of methods and solutions. In nine convenient chapters, Fundamental Finite Element Analysis and Applications: with Mathematica® and MATLAB® Computations covers:
Finite Element Method: The Big Picture
Mathematical Foundation of the Finite Element Method
One-Dimensional Boundary Value Problems
Trusses, Beams, and Frames
Two-Dimensional Elements
Mapped Elements
Analysis of Elastic Solids
Transient Problems
