About this document
Finite Element Analysis: Element Types by Muller Asmare is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses element shapes in finite element analysis. It describes 1D, 2D, axisymmetric and 3D elements. For 2D elements it specifically discusses triangular, quadrilateral and curved elements. It also discusses nodes, nodal unknowns, coordinate systems used in finite element analysis including global, local and natural coordinates. Finally it introduces shape functions which relate field variables at any point within an element to the nodal values.
