Programming the Finite Element Method.

From the Publisher: nIn the third edition of this highly-successful book, readers are shown how to develop computer programs which use the finite element method to solve specific problems which they may encounter. This third edition is completely revised, and has all programs and subroutine libraries written in FORTRAN 90. The programs and most subroutines are listed in full in the text, and are all available on the Internet via anonymous ftp. A wide variety of new problem solving analyses are presented, including classical structural analysis, elasticity and plasticity, steady state and transient fluid flow, linear and non-linear solid dynamics and construction processes in geomechanics.
