An Introduction to the Finite Element Method for Differential Equations
About this book
Master the finite element method with this masterful and practical volume
An Introduction to the Finite Element Method (FEM) for Differential Equations provides readers with a practical and approachable examination of the use of the finite element method in mathematics. Author Mohammad Asadzadeh covers basic FEM theory, both in one-dimensional and higher dimensional cases.
The book is filled with concrete strategies and useful methods to simplify its complex mathematical contents. Practically written and carefully detailed, An Introduction to the Finite Element Method covers topics including:
- An introduction to basic ordinary and partial differential equations
- The concept of fundamental solutions using Green's function approaches
- Polynomial approximations and interpolations, quadrature rules, and iterative numerical methods to solve linear systems of equations
- Higher-dimensional interpolation procedures
- Stability and convergence analysis of FEM for differential equations
This book is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in natural science and engineering. It belongs on the shelf of anyone seeking to improve their understanding of differential equations.
