This book has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect developments since the third edition, with an emphasis on structural mechanics. Coverage is up-to-d

The emphasis is on theory, programming and appilications to show exactly how Finite Element Method can be applied to quantum mechanics, heat transfer and fluid

Market_Desc: Special Features: · A new, introductory chapter provides very simple concepts of finite element analysis and discusses its practical application.

Introduces the basic concepts of FEM in an easy-to-use format so that students and professionals can use the method efficiently and interpret results properly F

Finite Element Analysis Applications: A Systematic and Practical Approach strikes a solid balance between more traditional FEA textbooks that focus primarily on
