Lesson 3 of 10 • 3 upvotes • 13:15mins
Basics of finite element method is discussed in this lesson. Some of the important terms in FEM is discussed here. These terms will be important and should be known prior to using finite element analysis softwares. Introduction to some of the terms used in finite element analysis is being discussed. Different stages of finite element method like preprocessing, analysis and postprocessing stages are discussed deeply through this lesson. This lesson will be a paving stone to analysis software basics. These basics will help you understand the details of analysis softwares easily. Various analysis softwares available in market are ANSYS, ABAQUS etc. These softwares helps the user solve analysis and interpret the result graphically. Mostly stress and strain, deformation plots are obtained as results from these softwares.
