This unique compendium introduces FEM (Finite Element Methods) as a general numerical technique for the solution of various engineering problems. By keeping the mathematics simple, this reference volume includes a comprehensive presentation and analysis of algorithms of time-dependent phenomena plus beam, plate, and shell theories. Since the majority of applications of FEM are in the realm of mechanics including solid, fluids, structural and soil, descriptions in this book are focused on the important applications in structural engineering and science. | Nonlinear Finite Element Methods by Yong Bai, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
