Inhaltsangabe

This textbook offers theoretical and practical knowledge of the finite element method. The book equips readers with the skills required to analyze engineering problems using ANSYS®, a commercially available FEA program. Revised and updated, this new edition presents the most current ANSYS® commands and ANSYS® screen shots, as well as modeling steps for each example problem. This self-contained, introductory text minimizes the need for additional reference material by covering both the fundamental topics in finite element methods and advanced topics concerning modeling and analysis. It focuses on the use of ANSYS® through both the Graphics User Interface (GUI) and the ANSYS® Parametric Design Language (APDL). Extensive examples from a range of engineering disciplines are presented in a straightforward, step-by-step fashion. Key topics include: 

• An introduction to FEM
• Fundamentals and analysis capabilities of ANSYS®
• Fundamentals of discretization and approximationfunctions
• Modeling techniques and mesh generation in ANSYS®
• Weighted residuals and minimum potential energy
• Development of macro files
• Linear structural analysis
• Heat transfer and moisture diffusion
• Nonlinear structural problems
• Advanced subjects such as submodeling, substructuring, interaction with external files, and modification of ANSYS®-GUI 

Electronic supplementary material for using ANSYS® can be found at http://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4899-7550-8. This convenient online feature, which includes color figures, screen shots and input files for sample problems, allows for regeneration on the reader’s own computer. Students, researchers, and practitioners alike will find this an essential guide to predicting and simulating the physical behavior of complex engineering systems."

ERDOGAN MADENCI Erdogan Madenci is a professor in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Arizona. He received his B.S. degrees on both mechanical and industrial engineering, and his M.S. degree in applied mechanics from Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pa in 1980, 1981, and 1982, respectively. He received his Ph.D. degree in engineering mechanics from the UCLA in 1987. Prior to joining the University of Arizona, he worked at Northrop Corporation, Aerospace Corporation, and Fraunhofer Institute. Also, he worked at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, NASA Langley Research Center, Sandia National Labs and MIT as part of his sabbatical leaves. He is the lead author of three books on Peridynamic Theory and Its Applications, The Finite Element Method Using ANSYS, and Fatigue Life Prediction of Solder Joints. Recently, he started the Journal of Peridynamics and Nonlocal Modeling as the Co-Editor-in-Chief. He is a Fellow of ASME and an Associate Fellow of AIAA. ATILA BARUT Atila Barut is a Research Associate Professor in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Arizona. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Engineering Sciences in 1988 and 1990, respectively, from the Middle East Technical University, Turkey. He received his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Arizona in 1998. Dr. Barut is an expert on the broad area of analytical and computational modeling of solid mechanics. Particularly, his research focused on the development of new finite elements for the analysis of composite plates and shells, and the peridynamic differential operator and its applications. He serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Peridynamics and Nonlocal Modeling. MEHMET DORDUNCU Mehmet Dorduncu is a PostdoctoralResearcher in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Arizona. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering in 2011 and 2013, respectively, from Erciyas University, Turkey. He received his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Arizona in 2018. His research has focused on the advancement of the peridynamic differential operator and its applications. ¿
