Features: The Finite Element Method (FEM), as a mathematical computational method invented by engineers, has played an increasingly important role in the field of engineering calculations since its inception. This book is based on the author's many years of teaching materials. The book is divided into seven chapters: Chapter 1 provides the relevant mathematical background knowledge, Chapters 2 and 3, Chapter 4 is about the finite element method for steel beam and grid structure, Chapter 5 discusses some basic principles and methods in finite element analysis, Chapter 6 covers isoparametric finite element methods, and Chapter 7 introduces other issues in finite element analysis. The book includes numerous examples and exercises to help students learn and master the finite element method.
