Basic Finite Element Method

This website contains notes used for the Basic Finite Element Method course taught at the School of Engineering at Jönköping University during spring 2024.

The course has two parallel tracks focusing on the numerical analysis and implementation of the method (FEM) as well as the applied application of the method using commercial software (SolidWorks Simulation) on real life problems (FEA).

Throughout the website there are code snippets in Matlab showing the implementation details of FEM as well as for visualization which is encouraged to be implemented by the reader as a tool for learning and understanding the concepts.
