Finite Element Method (FEM) is a well-established numerical technique for analyzing the structural behavior of mechanical components and systems, as well as for use in solving problems in heat transfer, fluid flow, and electromagnetic potential. The method has become increasingly popular in recent years due to rapidly evolving, sophisticated, affordable software that can be easily run on a desktop computer. This two volume work will cover the basics of solid FEM modeling as well as advanced applications in structural dynamics and probabilistic design analysis. The second volume builds on the fundamental topics in volume 1, with coverage of more advanced types of finite element modeling, including dynamic analysis and finite element modeling of composite materials. It also covers design optimitzation and APDL programming. Tutorials are offered using ANSYS for further exercise and practice. | Using Ansys For Finite Element Analysis Volume Ii by Wael A.
