CHAPTER 7 7.2 Basic Concepts in FEM 7.2BASIC CONCEPTS IN THE FINITE-ELEMENT METHOD The basic steps in FEA (Finite Element Analysis) consists of 3 phases: • Preprocessing Phase: • 1) Create and discretize the solution domain into finite elements; that is ,subdivide the problem into nodes and elements. • 2) Assume a shape function to represent the physical behavior of an element; that is, an approximate continuous function • is assumed to represent the solution of an element. • 3) Develop equations for an element. • 4) Assemble the elements to present the entire problem. Construct the global stiffness matrix. • 5) Apply boundary conditions, initial conditions, and loading.
