This advanced undergraduate and postgraduate text serves for courses in many engineering disciplines and professionals in industrial or academic research. It is written in a step-by-step methodological approach so that readers can acquire knowledge, either through formal engineering courses or by self-study. Also useful for industrial engineers as a reference manual.
- Comprehensively reviews finite element techniques in structural mechanics, paying particular attention to matrix algebra, the matrix displacement method and vibration of structures, among other topics
- Written in a step-by-step methodological approach so that readers can acquire knowledge, either through formal engineering courses or by self-study
- Also useful as a reference manual
Advanced undergraduate students and graduate students in many engineering disciplines and professionals in industrial or academic research
Introduction to matrix algebra; The matrix displacement method; Finite element method; Vibration of structures; Non-linear structural mechanics; Modal method of analysis; References and answers to further problems.
"All Carl Ross’s previous books are very clear and well written. This thoroughly interesting text is no exception. The worked examples and practice problems are particularly useful. I will continue to recommend Professor Ross’s books to my students. For anyone requiring an introduction to finite element analysis, this text is excellent."—Journal of Strain Analysis
"Very readable, clear and easy to follow. It should be especially useful to those new to the finite element method." —Chartered Mechanical Engineer
