Introduction to Finite Element Methods
Need for Computational Methods
• Solutions Using Either Strength of Materials or Theory of Elasticity Are Normally Accomplished for Regions and Loadings With Relatively Simple Geometry
• Many Applications Involve Cases with Complex Shape, Boundary Conditions and Material Behavior
• Therefore a Gap Exists Between What Is Needed in Applications and What Can Be Solved by Analytical Closed-form Methods
• This Has Lead to the Development of Several Numerical/Computational Schemes Including: Finite Difference, Finite Element and Boundary Element Methods
Introduction to Finite Element AnalysisThe finite element method is a computational scheme to solve field problems in engineering and science. The technique has very wide application, and has been used on problems involving stress analysis, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, diffusion, vibrations, electrical and magnetic fields, etc. The fundamental concept involves dividing the body under study into a finite number of pieces (subdomains) called elements (see Figure). Particular assumptions are then made on the variation of the unknown dependent variable(s) across each element using so-called interpolation or approximation functions. This approximated variation is quantified in terms of solution values at special element locations called nodes. Through this discretization process, the method sets up an algebraic system of equations for unknown nodal values which approximate the continuous solution. Because element size, shape and approximating scheme can be varied to suit the problem, the method can accurately simulate solutions to problems of complex geometry and loading and thus this technique has become a very useful and practical tool.
Advantages of Finite Element Analysis
- Models Bodies of Complex Shape
- Can Handle General Loading/Boundary Conditions
- Models Bodies Composed of Composite and Multiphase Materials
- Model is Easily Refined for Improved Accuracy by Varying
Element Size and Type (Approximation Scheme)
- Time Dependent and Dynamic Effects Can Be Included
- Can Handle a Variety Nonlinear Effects Including Material
Behavior, Large Deformations, Boundary Conditions, Etc.
Basic Concept of the Finite Element Method
Any continuous solution field such as stress, displacement, temperature, pressure, etc. can be approximated by a discrete model composed of a set of piecewise continuous functions defined over a finite number of subdomains.

Basic Steps in the Finite Element MethodTime Independent Problems
- Domain Discretization- Select Element Type (Shape and Approximation)- Derive Element Equations (Variational and Energy Methods)- Assemble Element Equations to Form Global System
[K]{U} = {F} [K] = Stiffness or Property Matrix {U} = Nodal Displacement Vector {F} = Nodal Force Vector - Incorporate Boundary and Initial Conditions - Solve Assembled System of Equations for Unknown Nodal Displacements and Secondary Unknowns of Stress and Strain Values
Common Sources of Error in FEA
• Domain Approximation• Element Interpolation/Approximation• Numerical Integration Errors
(Including Spatial and Time Integration)• Computer Errors (Round-Off, Etc., )
Measures of Accuracy in FEA
Accuracy
Error = |(Exact Solution)-(FEM Solution)|
Convergence
Limit of Error as:
Number of Elements (h-convergence) or
Approximation Order (p-convergence)
Increases
Ideally, Error 0 as Number of Elements or Approximation Order

Development of Finite Element Equation• The Finite Element Equation Must Incorporate the Appropriate Physics of the Problem
• For Problems in Structural Solid Mechanics, the Appropriate Physics Comes from Either Strength of Materials or Theory of Elasticity
• FEM Equations are Commonly Developed Using Direct, Variational-Virtual Work or Weighted Residual Methods
Variational-Virtual Work Method
Based on the concept of virtual displacements, leads to relations between internal and external virtual work and to minimization of system potential energy for equilibrium
Weighted Residual Method
Starting with the governing differential equation, special mathematical operations develop the “weak form” that can be incorporated into a FEM equation. This method is particularly suited for problems that have no variational statement. For stress analysis problems, a Ritz-Galerkin WRM will yield a result identical to that found by variational methods.
Direct Method
Based on physical reasoning and limited to simple cases, this method is worth studying because it enhances physical understanding of the process

Polynomial Approximation
Most often polynomials are used to construct approximation functions for each element. Depending on the order of approximation, different numbers of element parameters are needed to construct the appropriate function.
Special Approximation
For some cases (e.g. infinite elements, crack or other singular elements) the approximation function is chosen to have special properties as determined from theoretical considerations
