This text differs from other finite element books by addressing the challenges and developments in multidisciplinary analysis. Structural mechanics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, controls engineering, and propulsion technology and their interactions are covered. Unique chapters on finite element based aeroelasticity and aeroservoelasticity, structural eigenvalue problems, dynamics of spinning systems, and dynamic element method add value to the book. The second edition covers additional topics on CFD, aeroelasticity, aeroservoelasticity, optimization, and sparse matrix storage and decomposition using current frontal techniques.Numerical problems help illustrate the applicability of the techniques presented in the book. Exercises are given that may be solved either manually or by using suitable computer software.As a textbook, the book is useful at the senior undergraduate or graduate level. The practicing engineer will find it invaluable for solving full-scale practical problems. Professors! To receive your solutions manual, e-mail your request and full address to custserv@aiaa.org.
