What is the FEM?
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)

Fundamental Concepts (1)
Elastic problems
Thermal problems
Fluid flow
Electrostatics
etc.
Many engineering phenomena can be expressed by
“governing equations” and “boundary conditions”

you cannot solve it by hand

Fundamental Concepts (3)
16.810 (16.682) 10
It is very difficult to make the algebraic equations for the entire domain
Divide the domain into a number of small, simple elements
Adjacent elements share the DOF at connecting nodes
Fundamental Concepts (4)
Finite element: Small piece of structure
A field quantity is interpolated by a polynomial over an element
16.810 (16.682) 11
Obtain the algebraic equations for each element (this is easy!)
Put all the element equations together

Concepts - Summary
- FEM uses the concept of piecewise polynomial interpolation.
- By connecting elements together, the field quantity becomes interpolated
over the entire structure in piecewise fashion.
- A set of simultaneous algebraic equations at nodes.

Brief History
- The term finite element was first coined by clough in 1960. In the early
1960s, engineers used the method for approximate solutions of problems
in stress analysis, fluid flow, heat transfer, and other areas.
- The first book on the FEM by Zienkiewicz and Chung was published in
1967.
- In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the FEM was applied to a wide variety
of engineering problems.
- Most commercial FEM software packages originated in the 1970s.
(Abaqus, Adina, Ansys, etc.)
- Klaus-Jurgen Bathe in ME at MIT

Can readily handle very complex geometry:
- The heart and power of the FEM
Can handle a wide variety of engineering problems
- Solid mechanics - Dynamics - Heat problems
- Fluids - Electrostatic problems
Can handle complex restraints
- Indeterminate structures can be solved.
Can handle complex loading
- Nodal load (point loads)
- Element load (pressure, thermal, inertial forces)
- Time or frequency dependent loading
Advantages of the FEM
16.810 (16.682) 16
Disadvantages of the FEM
A general closed-form solution, which would permit one
to examine system response to changes in various
parameters, is not produced.
The FEM obtains only "approximate" solutions.
The FEM has "inherent" errors.
Mistakes by users can be fatal.

Errors Inherent in Computing
16.810 (16.682) 24
Mistakes by Users
- Elements are of the wrong type
e.g) Shell elements are used where solid elements are needed
- Distorted elements
- Supports are insufficient to prevent all rigid-body motions
- Inconsistent units (e.g. E=200 GPa, Force = 100 lbs)
- Too large stiffness differences Numerical difficulties

  • 6. 16.810 (16.682) 6 What is the FEM? 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)

  • 13. 16.810 (16.682) 13 Concepts - Summary - FEM uses the concept of piecewise polynomial interpolation. - By connecting elements together, the field quantity becomes interpolated over the entire structure in piecewise fashion. - A set of simultaneous algebraic equations at nodes.

  • 14. 16.810 (16.682) 14 Brief History - The term finite element was first coined by clough in 1960. In the early 1960s, engineers used the method for approximate solutions of problems in stress analysis, fluid flow, heat transfer, and other areas. - The first book on the FEM by Zienkiewicz and Chung was published in 1967. - In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the FEM was applied to a wide variety of engineering problems. - Most commercial FEM software packages originated in the 1970s. (Abaqus, Adina, Ansys, etc.) - Klaus-Jurgen Bathe in ME at MIT Reference [2]

Can handle complex loading - Nodal load (point loads) - Element load (pressure, thermal, inertial forces) - Time or frequency dependent loading Advantages of the FEM
  • 16. 16.810 (16.682) 16 Disadvantages of the FEM A general closed-form solution, which would permit one to examine system response to changes in various parameters, is not produced. The FEM obtains only "approximate" solutions. The FEM has "inherent" errors. Mistakes by users can be fatal.
