This book uses a novel concept to teach the finite element method,
applying it to solid mechanics. This major conceptual shift takes
away lengthy theoretical derivations in the face-to-face
interactions with students and focuses on the summary of key
equations and concepts; and to practice these on well-chosen
example problems. For this new, 2nd edition, many examples and
design modifications have been added, so that the learning-by-doing
features of this book make it easier to understand the concepts and
put them into practice. The theoretical derivations are provided as
additional reading and students must study and review the
derivations in a self-study approach. The book provides the
theoretical foundations to solve a comprehensive design project in
tensile testing. A classical clip-on extensometer serves as the
demonstrator on which to apply the provided concepts. The major
goal is to derive the calibration curve based on different
approaches, i.e., analytical mechanics and based on the finite
element method, and to consider further design questions such as
technical drawings, manufacturing, and cost assessment. Working
with two concepts, i.e., analytical and computational mechanics
strengthens the vertical integration of knowledge and allows the
student to compare and understand the different concepts, as well
as highlighting the essential need for benchmarking any numerical
result.
