Finite Element Programs For Axisymmetric Problems In Engineering
Finite Element Programs for Axisymmetric Problems in Engineering provides a focused and practical introduction to the development and application of finite element programs specifically designed for axisymmetric analysis. The book covers the fundamental principles of the finite element method (FEM), including element formulation, interpolation functions, stiffness matrix development, numerical integration, and solution of system equations, all tailored to axisymmetric geometries and loading conditions. Ross guides readers through the creation and implementation of computer programs for analyzing pressure vessels, rotating structures, cylindrical shells, and other axisymmetric components. With clear mathematical derivations, FORTRAN-based program listings, and illustrative engineering examples, this text serves as a valuable reference for students, researchers, and engineers involved in computational analysis of axisymmetric structural problems.
