The Finite Element Method: Its Basis and Fundamentals, Eighth Edition offers a complete introduction to the basis of the finite element method, covering fundamental theory and worked examples in a kind of detail required for readers to apply the knowledge to their own engineering problems and understand more advanced applications. This edition includes a significant addition of content addressing coupling problems, including: Finite element analysis formulations for coupled problems; Details of algorithms for solving coupled problems; Examples showing how algorithms can be used to solve for piezoelectricity and poroelasticity problems. Focusing on the core knowledge, mathematical and analytical tools needed for successful application, this book is the authoritative resource of choice for graduate level students, researchers and professional engineers involved in finite element-based engineering analysis. - Includes fully worked exercises throughout the book - Addresses the formulation and solution of coupled problems in detail - Contains chapter summaries that help the reader keep up-to-speed

O. C. Zienkiewicz was one of the early pioneers of the finite element method and is internationally recognized as a leading figure in its development and wide-ranging application. He was awarded numerous honorary degrees, medals and awards over his career, including the Royal Medal of the Royal Society and Commander of the British Empire (CBE). He was a founding author of The Finite Element Method books and developed them through six editions over 40 years up to his death in 2009. Previous positions held by O.C. Zienkiewicz include UNESCO Professor of Numerical Methods in Engineering at the International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Barcelona, Director of the Institute for Numerical Methods in Engineering at the University of Wales, Swansea, U.K.
