Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Finite element analysis (FEA) is a tool used for numerical approximation of complex physical structures in the field of structural engineering. It is used for simulating physical phenomena in order to reduce dependency on the physical prototypes. This method allows optimization of the components as a part of the design process of the project. The simulations used in FEA are carried out by creating a mesh of a finite number of smaller elements. Thereafter, these finite elements integrate to form the shape of the structure that is being assessed. Each of these small elements is subjected to calculations, which are in the form of mathematical equations that predict the behavior of each element individually. A combination of such individual calculations produces the final result of the overall structure. FEA can be applied to areas such as structural analysis, heat transfer, mass transport and electromagnetic potential. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide an in-depth knowledge about finite elements in civil engineering applications. Scholars and engineers in the field of civil engineering will be assisted by it.…
