520 |a The textbook at hand offers an introduction to Finite Element Methods from an engineering point of view comprising the basic principles of virtual work, derivations of displacement-based, mixed and hybrid element formulations for 1-D and 2-D membrane as well as bending structures and heat conduction. Different element geometries, including triangular elements and the isoparametric concept, and related numerical integration schemes, are presented. The element matrices and load vectors are derived in detail, the assembly at the system level is discussed with respect to fulfillment of boundary conditions and numerical efficiency. Evaluation of errors and investigations concerning the quality of the elements complete the work flow. The content Heat conduction, plane stress structures, bending structures, Discretization of the work equation, Structure and solution of the system of equations, Rectangular and triangular elements, Isoparametric elements, Numerical integration, Hybrid quadrilateral membrane elements, Hybrid triangular plate elements, Elements including description of shear deformation, Evaluation of elements - error estimation, quality of elements. The target group The textbook is addressed to students and engineers, who are dealing with structural mechanics and are interested to develop elements for their own applications. The authors Dieter Dinkler is Professor emeritus of Structural Analysis at Technische Universität Braunschweig. Ursula Kowalsky is Associate Professor of Structural Analysis at Technische Universität Braunschweig
