Zusammenfassung:"This book deals with the fundamentals of the finite element method and is aimed specifically at those students and professionals working in areas other than structural mechanics, with particular emphasis on heat transfer. While the finite element method was originally devised for structural engineers, many engineers recognize the power and versatility of this method, useful in a variety of applications in heat transfer, fluid mechanics, transport phenomena, and others." "Filling a key gap in the literature, the book is written in a simple, straightforward manner, without the burdening jargon of mathematics or complicating theory associated with many finite element books. Thoroughly classroom tested, the book teaches the reader how to develop and utilize finite element methodology to numerically solve problems with minimum effort. The authors assume familiarity with simple calculus and operation of a personal computer." "A set of software accompanies the book, with codes written in both FORTRAN and BASIC, which must be used to solve many of the real world problems included in the text. Simpler problems can be worked out manually." "By presenting fundamental mathematical statements that can be related to actual numerical implementation in a computer code, this authoritative work spans the gap between theory and application, enabling the reader to use the finite element method within a very short time."--BOOK JACKET.
