Connecting theory with numerical techniques using MATLAB®, this 
practical textbook equips students with the tools required to solve 
finite element problems. This hands-on guide covers a wide range of 
engineering problems through nine well-structured chapters including 
solid mechanics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics; equilibrium, steady 
state and transient; and 1-D, 2-D and 3-D problems. Engineering problems
 are discussed using case study examples, which are solved using a 
systematic approach, both by examining the steps manually and by 
implementing a complete MATLAB®code. This topical coverage is 
supplemented by discourse on meshing with a detailed explanation and 
implementation of 2-D meshing algorithms.  Introducing theory and 
numerical techniques alongside comprehensive examples this text 
increases engagement and provides students with the confidence needed to
 implement their own computer codes to solve given problems.
