Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using Creo Simulate 4.0

The primary goal of Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using Creo Simulate 4.0 is to introduce the aspects of finite element analysis (FEA) that are important to the engineers and designers. Theoretical aspects of finite element analysis are also introduced as they are needed to help better understand the operations. The primary emphasis of the text is placed on the practical concepts and procedures of using Creo Simulate in performing Linear Statics Stress Analysis; but the basic modal analysis procedure is covered.
