Finite element modelling of several physical engineering problems

Author:

Abstract

This paper presents the application of the Finite Element Method (FEM) to a wide range of physical engineering problems and analysis types. It summarises some of the research works carried out by the author using FEM. The types of analysis, which are coved in this paper, include linear and non-linear stress analysis, heat transfer analysis, diffusion analysis, coupled thermal-stress and coupled diffusionstress analysis, fracture mechanics analysis and modelling of macro-cracks, fatigue damage initiation and crack propagation analysis, modal analysis, transient dynamics analysis and traffic flow analysis.
