Applied Finite Element Analysis for Engineers by Stasa pdf Free Download

Emphasizing how one applies FEM to practical engineering problems, this text provides a thorough introduction to the methods of finite analysis and applies these methods to problems of stress analysis, thermal analysis, fluid flow analysis, and lubrication.



This book, unlike many other finite element books, is written in a very simple language, making it appropriate for those who want to start learning finite element method. This book avoids any unnecessary complications and gives a decent insight to the readers by providing relevant simple examples. The simple and fluent text of the book may be somehow limiting the generality of the theorems, but overall it is a very good choice for beginners. 




This book is oriented towards engineers and applied mathematicians. A course in linear algebra is helpful but not essential. Courses in elasticity, heat transfer and fluid mechanics should facilitate the student’s understanding of the applications emphasized in this text. Overall, the author’s approach represents a compromise between the purely mathematical and the purely applied developments.



Stress or structure analysis is given the same level of treatment as the thermal and fluid flow analysis. However, this book is structured so that it may be used in courses in which the application area is strictly stress analysis or strictly thermal analysis.
