Finite Element Method: Principles, Applications and Accuracy

Concept of FEM and Procedure

The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a numerical technique used to solve complex engineering problems by dividing a large system into smaller, simpler parts called finite elements.

Instead of solving the whole structure at once, FEM solves each small element and combines the results to get an approximate solution.

Procedure of FEM

  1. Discretization (Meshing): Divide the entire domain into small elements.
  2. Selection of Element Type: Choose suitable elements (1D, 2D, 3D).
  3. Derivation
