Programming the Finite Element Method (Wiley Series in Computational Mechanics)
Programming the Finite Element Method - Wiley Series in Computational Mechanics Author:Ian Smith, Vaughan Griffiths, Lee Margetts Many students, scientists and researchers have benefited from the practical, programming-oriented style of Programming the Finite Element Method, learning how to develop computer programmes which solve specific engineering problems using the finite element method and to assemble their own computer programmes to produce numerical results to solve... more » these problems.This new fifth edition offers well-considered, timely revisions such as programs and subroutine libraries fully updated to Fortran 2003, which are freely available online, and provides updated material on advances in parallel computing, thermal stress analysis, better return algorithms, better treatment of convection boundary conditions, and the interface with mesh partitioning tools (METIS). As in the previous editions, a wide variety of problem solving capabilities are presented including structural analysis, elasticity and plasticity, construction processes in geomechanics, uncoupled and coupled steady and transient fluid flow and linear and nonlinear solid dynamics. It provides a valuable reference and guide to anyone interested in finite element programming ? from learners to experienced programmers.« less
