About the Book:

This book is written primarily to help the students as a gentle introduction to the practice of FEM. It contains complementary/supplementary material to the textbooks covering the theoretical aspects of the subject. It also contains many 1-D and 2-D problems solved by analytical method, by FEM using hand calculations and by using commercial FEM software - ANSYS 12.0 - an academic teaching software. It helps the students in building confidence in the method.
Key Features

    Includes a comparison of solutions to the problems obtained by Analytical method, FEM hand calculations and software method.
    Includes about 35 solved problems using software.
    Includes about 30 exercise problems.
    Includes step-by-step procedures of solving the problem by using software.
