Advanced Topics in Finite Element Analysis of Structures: With Mathematica and MATLAB Computations

by M. Asghar Bhatti

Starting from governing differential equations, a unique and consistently weighted residual approach is used to present advanced topics in finite element analysis of structures, such as mixed and hybrid formulations, material and geometric nonlinearities, and contact problems. This book features a hands-on approach to understanding advanced concepts of the finite element method (FEM) through integrated Mathematica and MATLAB® exercises.

A very good reference for student taking Advanced Finite Element Analysis in college. Each chapter in this book is clearly explained. Problems given in each corresponding topic is relevant. It provides many samples of implying finite element analysis using matlab, though I did not use it last semester because of the absence of software based assignments. I got this book at Sg$ 65. It is really really a good book. Like it.
