978-1-119-67164-0 (ISBN)
An Introduction to the Finite Element Method (FEM) for Differential Equations provides readers with a practical and approachable examination of the use of the finite element method in mathematics. Author Mohammad Asadzadeh covers basic FEM theory, both in one-dimensional and higher dimensional cases.
The book is filled with concrete strategies and useful methods to simplify its complex mathematical contents. Practically written and carefully detailed, An Introduction to the Finite Element Method covers topics including:
An introduction to basic ordinary and partial differential equations
The concept of fundamental solutions using Green's function approaches
Polynomial approximations and interpolations, quadrature rules, and iterative numerical methods to solve linear systems of equations
Higher-dimensional interpolation procedures
Stability and convergence analysis of FEM for differential equations
This book is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in natural science and engineering. It belongs on the shelf of anyone seeking to improve their understanding of differential equations.
MOHAMMAD ASADZADEH, PHD is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Chalmers University of Technology and University of Gothenburg. His primary research interests include the numerical analysis of hyperbolic pdes, as well as convection-diffusion and integro-differential equations.
