Discussion Overview
The discussion centers around finding a comprehensive book on finite element methods, particularly one that includes numerous solved numerical problems. The context is related to mechanical engineering education.
Discussion Character
Main Points Raised
- One participant requests suggestions for a book on finite element methods that includes solved numericals.
- Another participant recommends "The Finite Element Method in Engineering" by S. S. Rao, noting that it covers the basics and includes many numerical results, as well as sufficient detail for programming.
- A later reply expresses appreciation for the recommendation.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants do not express disagreement, but the discussion primarily revolves around the request for book recommendations without further exploration of alternative texts.
