Course Objective

The finite element method has become a powerful tool for the numerical solution of a wide range from deformations and stress analysis of aircraft, building, and bridge structures, to field analysis of fluid flow, seepage, and other flow problems.With the advances in computer technology, complex problems can be modeled with relative ease.The finite element method is a numerical procedure for solving the ordinary and partial differential equations that arise in engineering and mathematical physics.
