Synopsis

Presents compact and portable FORTRAN programs for solution of problems using the finite element method. All code is presented in full, and the user is encouraged to look into the subroutines to see how they actually work. Covers the main areas of engineering analysis: equilibrium, transient, and eigenvalue problems. In the structures/solid mechanics area, programs solve problems ranging from simple structural analysis, through linear elastic analyses of two-dimensional solids...

About this title

From the Back Cover

Following the highly successful previous editions, this 4th edition contains programs and subroutine libraries fully updated to Fortran95, which are freely available on the Internet. A wide variety of problem solving capabilities are presented including structural analysis, elasticity and plasticity, construction processes in geomechanics, uncoupled and coupled steady and transient fluid flow and linear and nonlinear solid dynamics. A major new feature is the inclusion of...
