About this product
Product Information
A FIRST COURSE IN THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD provides a simple, basic approach to the course material that can be understood by both undergraduate and graduate students without the usual prerequisites (i.e. structural analysis). The book is written primarily as a basic learning tool for the undergraduate student in civil and mechanical engineering whose main interest is in stress analysis and heat transfer. The text is geared toward those who want to apply the finite element method as a tool to solve practical physical problems.

Reviews
The author presented topics in a simple and easy-to-follow way and provided subsequently proper derivation or illustration to enhance students' understanding. I cannot find a textbook which is better than this one in the field of finite element method., Logan has a very easy-to-read style, while retaining the precision and clarity of engineering topics without being dry., Logan does a very good job of keeping things simple and straight forward. Fairly well written using a simple approach without extensive theoretical and mathematical theory. The text is very complete.

Zero issues to report. Item as described - even better than pictured! Item packed securely and shipped safely! Awesome eBay seller! So happy I found this classic piece of nostalgia. It will make a wonderful addition to my growing (and rather obsessive) collection of vintage CD players! A very positive eBay transaction from start to finish! Perfection!
