Overview
- Introduction to finite elements only based on calculus and linear algebra
- Covers theory, implementation and applications. Focus on basic mathematical principles and consequent use of the same approach in different applications
- Matlab programs included
- Wide range of applications including solid mechanics, electromagnetics, and fluid mechanics
- Covers modern topics such as adaptivity based on duality arguments?
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Reviews
From the reviews:
“The authors give an introduction to the finite element method as a general computational method for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) approximately. … The book should be accessible to students with only knowledge of calculus of several variables, basic partial differential equations, and linear algebra, as the necessary concepts from more advanced analysis are introduced when needed.” (Răzvan Răducanu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1263, 2013)Authors and Affiliations
