Clearly introduce the basics of the finite element method (FEM) with this simple, direct -- and now updated -- approach in Logan's A FIRST COURSE IN THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD, ENHANCED 6th Edition. This unique presentation is written so both undergraduate and graduate students can easily comprehend content without the usual prerequisites, such as structural analysis. This edition is ideal for civil or mechanical engineering students primarily interested in stress analysis and heat transfer. It also offers a strong foundation for applying FEM as a tool in solving practical physical problems. Additional, current real-world examples and problems demonstrate applications in a variety of engineering and mathematical physics-related fields. This edition's consistent presentation with step-by-step, worked-out examples and a special visual insert further clarify 3-D images and FEM concepts. A new WebAssign digital platform provides additional online resources to clarify concepts.
