Introduction to Finite Element Analysis: A Textbook for Engineering Students (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789811979880)

This textbook covers the basic concepts and applications of finite element analysis. It is specifically aimed at introducing this advanced topic to undergraduate-level engineering students and practicing engineers in a lucid manner. It also introduces a structural and heat transfer analysis software FEAST^SMT which has wide applications in civil, mechanical, nuclear and automobile engineering domains. This software has been developed by generations of scientists and engineers of Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre and Indian Space Research Organisation. Supported with many illustrative examples, the textbook covers the classical methods of estimating solutions of mathematical models. The book is written in an easy-to-understand manner. This textbook also contains numeral exercise problems to aid self-learning of the students. The solutions to these problems are demonstrated using finite element software. Furthermore, the textbook contains several tutorials and associated onlineresources on usage of the FEAST^SMT software. Given the contents, this textbook is highly useful for the undergraduate students of various disciplines of engineering. It is also a good reference book for the practicing engineers.
