Lesson 2 of 10 • 11 upvotes • 12:09mins
This lesson gives you a basic idea about the general procedure of finite element analysis. Different types of elements used in finite element analysis are also introduced in this lesson. Phases of finite element method like preprocessing, analysis and postprocessing are discussed here. A brief discription about discretization and its importance in FEM is added in this lesson. A small description about various software packages used in analysis of models is also added in this lesson. Features of these softwares especially the key features of ABAQUS software is also discussed here. Importance of polynomial function as interpolation function is also defined in this lesson. Different types of polynomial functions are also discussed in this lesson.
