The book provides an integrated approach to finite elements, combining theory, a variety of examples and exercise problems from engineering applications, and the implementation of the theory in complete self-contained computer programs. It serves as a textbook for senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students and also as a learning resource for practicing engineers.
Problem formulation and modeling are stressed in the book. The student will learn the theory and use it to solve a variety of engineering problems.
Features of the Second Edition: new material is added in the areas of orthotropic materials, conjugate gradient method, three dimensional frames, frontal method, Guyan reduction, and contour plotting for quadrilaterals; temperature effect and multipoint constraint considerations have been introduced for stress analysis in solids, and implemented in the computer programs; all the previous computer programs have been revised and several new ones are added; a disk with QUICKBASIC source code programs is provided; FORTRAN, and C versions for Chapters 2 through 11 are also included; and example data files are included.

This book provides an integrated approach to finite element methodologies, combining sound theory, examples and exercises involving engineering applications, and the implementation of theory in complete, self-contained computer programs. While the strategy and philosophy of the previous edition has been retained, the Second Edition has been updated and improved to include new material on additional topics.
Now in its third edition, Introduction to Finite Elements in Engineering provides an integrated approach to finite methodologies through the integration of exercises and examples involving engineering applications. The steps used in the development of the theory are implemented in complete, self-contained computer programs, while retaining the strategies and philosophies of previous editions. It serves as a primary textbook for senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students as well as an invaluable learning resource for practicing engineers.
Hallmark Features: Additional programs and source code on a companion CD
Includes complete self-contained computer programs with source codes in Visual Basic, Excel-based Visual Basic, MATLAB, QUICKBASIC, FORTRAN, and C.
