Best Finite Element Method Books to Understand Methods

AI Thread Summary
A recommended book for understanding the finite element method (FEM) is "Understanding and Implementing the Finite Element Method" by Mark S. Gockenbach. The discussion highlights that the choice of solution method in FEM/FEA is influenced by the type of partial differential equation (PDE) being addressed, which varies based on the specific application, such as mechanics, fluid flow, or heat transfer. This emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate resources that align with the particular problems being studied in FEM.

do suggest a good book for finite element method?some books have left me confused over the
various methods
 
Physics news on Phys.org
This is probably a good book on the subject.

What about FEM/FEA is one interested. The solution method can depend on the type of PDE being solved, and the PDE is related to the problem - e.g., mechanics, fluid flow, heat transfer, . . . , or some combination thereof.

Thread 'Book recommendation after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics'

TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...
