Abstract

The finite element method (FEM) is covered in this chapter. For the numerical solution of different physics and engineering problems, including heat transport issues, the finite element method is a particularly potent tool. An analytical method-like mathematical function cannot be obtained using FEM. This chapter provides a thorough study of several FEM-related topics, including relationships and governing equations, discretization of equations, two- and three-dimensional isoparametric elements, mesh generation, etc.
