Finite Elements for Truss and Frame Structures: An Introduction Based on the Computer Algebra System Maxima

by Resam Makvandi and Andreas Öchsner

This book is intended as an essential study aid for the finite element method. Based on the free computer algebra system Maxima, the authors offer routines for symbolically or numerically solving problems in the context of plane truss and frame structures, allowing readers to check classical 'hand calculations' on the one hand and to understand the computer implementation of the method on the other. The mechanical theories focus on the classical...
