Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Designed to serve as an introductory text which presents the finite element technique in a clear, easy-to-understand manner. The emphasis remains on establishing an accessible comprehension of fundamentals to facilitate using the method in research and/or to solve practical, existing problems. Contains a balanced treatment of the theory with a wide range of applications and examples from thermofluid mechanics, structures, heat transfer, elasticity and lubrication. This edition is completely updated with new problems and modern computer codes. The sections on fluid mechanics reflect extensive advances in recent years.
"A Wiley-Interscience publication.".
