The Finite Element Method Set

The Finite Element Method Set, 7th Edition is an extensive reference resource covering the theory and application of FEM in solid, structural and fluid systems. Taking in three books also available separately, the set is software independent and covers founding principles alongside the latest developments in mathematics, modeling and analysis.
