Description
Wiley India Textbook Of Finite Element Analysis Formulation And Programming by D K Maharaj
A Textbook of Finite Element Analysis presents detailed finite element formulation for 1D, 2D, 3D trusses, beams, frames, plane stress, plane strain, axisymmetric, 3D problems, plates and shell problems. The book includes chapters on solving finite element equations and numerical integration and a chapter on programming finite element method with input and output for different types of problems. Chapters on advanced topics like heat transfer, fluid flow and torsion, finite element software, variational methods, finite elements in dynamics and vibrations, material nonlinearity and geometric nonlinearity have also been dealt with. Most of the chapters include element formulation with worked out examples, exercises and questions.
