Features: This book is one of the series textbooks for postgraduate students in civil engineering. It systematically introduces the fundamental theories of the finite element method and its applications in the field of civil engineering. The book focuses on the establishment of computational models for engineering practical problems and the selection of computational methods, minimizing the derivation of processes while emphasizing the judgment of results. It provides students with basic theoretical knowledge of the finite element method, nonlinear finite element methods, and the application of general finite element software. Additionally, it offers extended content such as plate and shell finite element methods and other numerical methods. To facilitate students' learning and mastery of finite element software and its applications, the book is accompanied by a CD-ROM containing detailed operation steps and command flows for ANSYS and MARC software for student use. This book serves as a textbook for postgraduate students in civil engineering and can also be used as a reference for technical personnel in related fields.
