Synopsis

This is a basic text covering finite element theory development, problem formulation and computer with a BASIC and FORTRAN diskette. Shape function and isoparametric concepts are introduced from the beginning and consistently carried through to two-and three-dimensional problems. Both e nergy and Galerkin approaches are used in the development of stiffness and load matrices and governing equations. Attention is given throughout to the modelling of engineering problems, specification of...
