Introduction to Finite Elements Methods

This book is aimed at presenting the theory and practice of Finite Element Method (FEM) in a manner which makes it is easy to learn the concepts, analysis, and methodology of FEM through simple derivations and worked out examples in interdisciplinary areas. While there are many advanced books and manuals on the subject, there are very few books illustrating the method through simple examples and computations. The emphasis is on hands on learning of the FEM through manually worked out examples.
