Finite elements: an introduction to the method and error estimation

Most of the many books on finite elements are devoted either to mathematical theory or to engineering applications, but not to both. This book presents computed numbers which not only illustrate the theory but can only be analysed using the theory. This approach, both dual and interacting between theory and computation makes this book unique. INDICE: 1: Introduction; 2: Formulations of the Problems; 3: Finite Element Methods; 4: Interpolation and its Error; 5: a priori Estimates of the Error of the Finite Element Solution in the Energy Norm; 6: Functionals and Superconvergence; 7: a posteriori Error Estimates; 8: A Note on Verification; 9: Epilogue
