IG. A10 What is the fem? FEM: Method for numerical solution of field problems Description FEM cuts a structure into several elements(pieces of the structure Then reconnects elements at"nodes"as if nodes were pins or drops of glue that hold elements together This process results in a set of simultaneous algebraic equations Number of degrees-of-freedom(DOF Continuum: Infinite FEM: Finite This is the origin of the name, Finite Element Method) 16.810(16682) Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Description - FEM cuts a structure into several elements (pieces of the structure). - Then reconnects elements at “nodes” as if nodes were pins or drops of glue that hold elements together. - This process results in a set of simultaneous algebraic equations. FEM: Method for numerical solution of field problems. Number of degrees-of-freedom (DOF) Continuum: Infinite FEM: Finite (This is the origin of the name, Finite Element Method)
