This book is intended for presenting the basic concepts of Finite Element Analysis applied to several engineering applications. Salient features: covers several modules of elasticity, heat conduction, eigenvalue and fluid flow analysis which are necessary for a student of Mechanical Engineering; Finite Element formulations have been presented using both global and natural coordinates. It is important for providing smooth transition form formulation in global coordinates to natural coordinates; special focus has been given to heat conduction problems and fluid flows which are not sufficiently discussed in other textbooks; important factors affecting the formulation have been included as Miscellaneous Topics; and, several examples have been worked out in order to highlight the applications of Finite Element Analysis.
