Includes bibliographical references and index.

Introduction -- Direct approach for discrete systems -- Strong and weak forms for one-dimensional problems -- Approximation of trial solutions, weight functions and gauss quadrature for one-dimensional problems -- Finite element formulation for one-dimensional problems -- Strong and weak forms for multidimensional scalar field problems -- Approximations of trial solutions, weight functions and gauss quadrature for multidimensional problems -- Finite element formulation for multidimensional scalar field problems -- Finite element formulation for vector field problems -- Linear elasticity -- Finite element formulation for beams -- Commercial finite element program ABAQUS tutorials -- Appendix.

Developed from the authors, combined total of 50 years undergraduate and graduate teaching experience, this book presents the finite element method formulated as a general-purpose numerical procedure for solving engineering problems governed by partial differential equations.
