Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations by the Finite Element Method

by Claes Johnson

Professor Johnson presents an easily accessible introduction to one of the most important methods used to solve partial differential equations. The bulk of the text focuses on linear problems, however a chapter extending the development of non-linear problems is also included, as is one on finite element methods for integral equations. Throughout the text the author has included applications to important problems in mathematics and physics, and has endeavored to keep the mathematics as simple as possible while still presenting significant results.

Best fundamental book for ones wanna learn about finite element method.

[Michael Armata]

I found that this horribly-formatted book made the topic more confusing rather than explain it. For a beginner, there are far better books to read.
