Introduction to Finite Element Method

The Finite Element Method (FEM) involves dividing structures into smaller elements to solve equations locally and then assembling them globally. Common elements used in FEM include bars, beams, shells, and solids, which are selected based on the structure being analyzed. FEM is applied in various fields such as bridge design, aerospace, and automotive structures.
