Finite Element analysis (FEA) is a widely used method for examining any complex system by dividing it into small elements that can be easily evaluated. This expert guide will show you how to apply FEA in manufacturing to enhance the precision and quality of your products.


Especially written for engineers in smaller firms, or smaller departments of larger firms, where computer resources are limited, the book features:

Tab Article

An introduction to PC-based FEA
Guidance on getting started, plus a beginning tutorial on problem solving
Detailed chapters on structural analysis, steady-state thermal analysis, transient heat transfer analysis, and fluid flow analysis using the suite of ALGOR software.
Real-world applications in FEA in the manufacture of commercial and industrial products.
