STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS WITH THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD
Linear Statics
Volume 1: The Basis and Solids
Eugenio Onate
The two volumes of this book cover most of the theoretical and
computational aspects of the linear static analysis of structures
with the Finite Element Method (FEM). The content of the book is
based on the lecture notes of a basic course on Structural Analysis
with the FEM taught by the author at the Technical University of
Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona, Spain for the last 30 years.
Volume1 presents the basis of the FEM for structural analysis
and a detailed description of the finite element formulation for
axially loaded bars, plane elasticity problems, axisymmetric solids
and general three dimensional solids. Each chapter describes the
background theory for each structural model considered, details of
the finite element formulation and guidelines for the application
to structural engineering problems. The book includes a chapter on
miscellaneous topics such as treatment of inclined supports,
elastic foundations, stress smoothing, error estimation and
adaptive mesh refinement techniques, among others. The text
concludes with a chapter on the mesh generation and visualization
of FEM results.
The book will be useful for students approaching the finite
element analysis of structures for the first time, as well as for
practising engineers interested in the details of the formulation
and performance of the different finite elements for practical
structural analysis.
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS WITH THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD
Linear Statics
Volume 2: Beams, Plates and Shells
Eugenio Onate
The two volumes of this book cover most of the theoretical and
computational aspects of the linear static analysis of structures
with the Finite Element Method (FEM).The content of the book is
based on the lecture notes of a basic course on Structural Analysis
with the FEM taught by the author at the Technical University of
Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona, Spain for the last 30 years.
Volume 2 presents a detailed description of the finite element
formulation for analysis of slender and thick beams, thin and thick
plates, folded plate structures, axisymmetric shells, general
curved shells, prismatic structures and three dimensional beams.
Each chapter describes the background theory for each structural
model considered, details of the finite element formulation and
guidelines for the application to structural engineering problems
Emphasis is put on the treatment of structures with layered
composite materials.
The book will be useful for students approaching the finite
element analysis of beam, plate and shell structures for the first
time, as well as for practising engineers interested in the details
of the formulation and performance of the different finite elements
for practical structural analysis.
