Finite Element Analysis: Thermomechanics of Solids
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Many applications of finite element analysis (FEA) involve nonlinear problems. While engineers dealing with such applications may have access to powerful finite element codes and computers, they often lack the full understanding of the finite element method that nonlinear problems require. This text gives a comprehensive, unified presentation of FEA applied to coupled mechanical and thermal, static and dynamic, and linear and nonlinear responses of solids and structures. The inclusion of a concise review of the relevant mathematics and first-course material, sample problems, and exercises, makes this an ideal text for a second course in finite element methods.
Book Info
Text presents the principles of the finite-element method for application to the mechanical, thermal, and thermomechanical response- both static and dynamic- of linear and nonlinear solids. Designed for a second-level course or as a reference work. Basic familiarity with the finite-element method is assumed. Includes index and chapter exercises. DLC: Thermal stresses--Mathematical models.
