Practical Programming of Finite Element Procedures for Solids and Structures with MATLAB®

Practical Programming of Finite Element Procedures for Solids and Structures with MATLAB: From Elasticity to Plasticity provides readers with step-by-step programming processes and applications of the finite element method (FEM) in MATLAB®, as well as the underlying theory. The hands-on approach covers a number of structural problems such as linear analysis of solids and structural elements, as well as nonlinear subjects including elastoplasticity and hyperelasticity. Each chapter begins with fo
