Features: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the basic methods of finite element modeling in engineering structures, as well as the usage and techniques of the internationally popular microcomputer finite element analysis system Algor (also known as SuperSap in China). It includes modeling methods for linear and nonlinear finite elements, environmental settings, automatic generation of finite element meshes, selection of element types and analysis types, and visualization of computational results. The book helps readers quickly master its usage. It can serve as both an introductory reading for beginners and intermediate users of finite element analysis, and as a reference manual for advanced Algor users. The book is suitable for engineering technicians, researchers, and faculty and students in fields such as mechanics, civil engineering, road and bridge engineering, geotechnical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace, nuclear energy, and defense engineering.
