This book is a follow-up to the introductory text written by the same authors. The primary emphasis on this book is linear and nonlinear partial differential equations with particular concentration on the equations of viscous fluid motion. Each chapter describes a particular application of the finite element method and illustrates the concepts through example problems. A comprehensive appendix lists computer codes for 2-D fluid flow and two 3-D transient codes.

This self-explanatory guide introduces the basic fundamentals of the Finite Element Method in a clear manner using comprehensive examples. Beginning with the concept of one-dimensional heat transfer, the first chapters include one-dimensional problems that can be solved by inspection. The book progresses through more detailed two-dimensional elements to three-dimensional elements, including discussions on various applications, and ending with introductory chapters on the boundary element and meshless methods, where more input data must be provided to solve problems.Emphasis is...

This book provides a thorough understanding of fluid dynamics and heat and mass transfer. It shows students how to implement computational methodology into a computer code and solve complex problems on their own, including problems in heat transfer, mass transfer, and fluid flows. These problems are solved and illustrated through step-by-step derivations and numerous figures. This second edition contains new chapters on mesh generation and computational modeling of turbulent flow. Appendices present examples in ANSYS, STAR CCM+, and COMSOL.
