I am doing BE in mechanical engineering. I'm looking for a comprehensive book on finite element methods preferably with a lot of solved numericals . Suggestions, please?
A finite element method is a numerical technique used to solve partial differential equations. It involves dividing a continuous problem into smaller, simpler sub-problems, or finite elements, and then using mathematical algorithms to approximate the solution.
This book covers all aspects of finite element methods, from the fundamentals to advanced topics such as adaptive methods and multiphysics simulations. It also includes practical examples, code snippets, and exercises to enhance understanding and application.
This book is suitable for students, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of engineering, physics, and applied mathematics who are interested in learning about finite element methods and their applications.
A basic understanding of calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations is recommended. Some familiarity with programming languages such as MATLAB or Python would also be beneficial.
Finite element methods provide a powerful tool for solving complex problems in various fields, such as structural analysis, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer. It allows for more accurate and efficient solutions compared to traditional analytical methods. Additionally, it enables the simulation of real-world scenarios, which may not be possible to test physically.
