Description for Finite Element Analysis of Structures Through Unified Formulation Hardback. This book deals with the Finite Element Method for the analysis of elastic structures such as beams, plates, shells and solids. The modern approach of Unified Formulation (UF), as proposed by the lead author, deals with the consideration of one-dimensional (beams), two-dimensional (plates and shells) and three-dimensional (solids) elements. Num Pages: 410 pages, black & white illustrations, black & white tables, figures. BIC Classification: TG; TN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 250 x 172 x 29. Weight in Grams: 872.

The finite element method (FEM) is a computational tool widely used to design and analyse  complex structures. Currently, there are a number of different approaches to analysis using the FEM that vary according to the type of structure being analysed: beams and plates may use 1D or 2D approaches, shells and solids 2D or 3D approaches, and methods that work for one structure are typically not optimized to work for another.

Finite Element Analysis of Structures Through Unified Formulation deals with the FEM used for the analysis of the mechanics of structures in the case of linear elasticity. The novelty ... Read more

Key features:

  • Covers how the refined formulation can be easily and conveniently used to analyse laminated structures, such as sandwich and composite structures, and to deal with multifield problems
  • Shows the performance of different FE models through the 'best theory diagram' which allows different models to be compared in terms of accuracy and computational cost
  • Introduces an axiomatic/asymptotic approach that reduces the computational cost of the structural analysis without affecting the accuracy
  • Introduces an innovative 'component-wise' approach to deal with complex structures
  • Accompanied by a website hosting the dedicated software package MUL2 (www.mul2.com)

Finite Element Analysis of Structures Through Unified Formulation is a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners, and is also a useful source of information for graduate students in civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering.
