MAT 668 - Applied Finite Element Analysis


Credits 3

Introduction to finite element method with computer applications to engineering continuum problems such as thermodynamics, solid/fluid mechanics. Topics include variational formulation of boundary value problems, natural and essential boundary conditions, discretization of domain based on rectangular, triangular, tethedral and other elements, with linear, quadratic and higher order polynomial approximations.

Notes
This course is crosslisted with MATH 468. Credit at the 600-level requires additional work.

The 600-level MAT and STA courses that are normally available for graduate credit are those numbered 650 or higher; the exceptions are MAT 680, which may be counted for graduate credit in an education degree program, and STA 691, STA 693, and STA 695, which may be counted for graduate credit in a biological sciences program.
