Vol. 1.

   [B]The Finite Element Method - The Basis[/B]

 Volume 1 is an essential text for people trying to acquaint themselves with the subject and requiring an up to date [COLOR=blue! important][COLOR=blue! important]presentation[/color][/color] of theory and possibilities. It deals strictly with linear problems and the matter presented allows engineers and scientists with different [COLOR=blue! important][COLOR=blue! important]backgrounds[/color][/color] to become acquainted with the subject. The mathematics is kept at a fairly simple level to cover a wide readership. The book should also be useful to students of mathematics albeit they might be used to a different notation than that used in this text.
