hi every one. can anyone suggest me a good book on finite element method? i am a beginner and want to clear my basics about the subject. online links and tutorials would also help.
thanks in advance.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Perhaps try:
(1) Adams, et al., Building better products with finite element analysis, OnWord Press, 1998.
(2) Felippa, Introduction to finite element methods[/color], University of Colorado, 2004.

Also try a google search such as the following, to investigate previous answers to this question on Physics Forums (PF).
