Automated Solution of Differential Equations by The Finite Element Method 1264258828

Programming the Finite Element Method using C# for Bar Elements

Written by specialists of modeling in electromagnetism, this book pres a comprehensive review of the finite element method for low frequency applications. Fundamentals of the method as well as new advances in the field are described in detail.
Chapters 1 to 4 present general 2D and 3D static and dynamic formulations by the use of scalar and vector unknowns and adapted interpolations for the fields (nodal, edge, face or volume).

The Finite Element Method and Applications with ANSYS® provides the reader with theoretical and practical knowledge of the finite element method and with the skills required to analyze engineering problems with ANSYS®, a commercially available FEA program. This self-contained, introductory text minimizes the need for additional reference material, covering the fundamental topics in finite element methods, as well as advanced topics concerning modeling and analysis with ANSYS®.
