Finite Element Methods and Their Applications

by Zhangxin Chen

Published 1 January 2005

^{Introduce every concept in the simplest setting and to maintain a level of treatment that is as rigorous as possible without being unnecessarily abstract.}

^{Contains unique recent developments of various finite elements such as nonconforming, mixed, discontinuous, characteristic, and adaptive finite elements, along with their applications.}

^{Describes unique recent applications of finite element methods to important fields such as multiphase flows in porous media and semiconductor modelling.}

^{Treats the three major types of partial differential equations, i.e., elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic equations.}
