does anyone have notes for finite element method and/ or structural dynamic?

The finite element method (FEM) is a numerical method for solving problems of engineering and mathematical physics. It is also referred to as finite element analysis (FEA). Typical problem areas of interest include structural analysis, heat transfer, fluid flow, mass transport, and electromagnetic potential.

he finite element method formulation of the problem results in a system of algebraic equations. The method yields approximate values of the unknowns at discrete number of points over the domain. To solve the problem, it subdivides a large problem into smaller, simpler parts that are called finite elements

The original body is considered as the assembly of these elements connected at a finite number of joints called as “nodes” .

The properties of the elements are formulated individually and then combined to obtain the properties of the entire body.

When you use a numerical method like the finite element method, you divide a large body into an equivalent system of smaller bodies called elements. This is done because using an analytical method on the larger body may require a solution to a boundary value partial differential equation; a task that might be difficult or impossible to solve. The question: why does dividing a large object into smaller objects help at all? If you divide a rectangle into tiny rectangles...
