finite-element analysis — A reduction of a complex structure to its basic component parts so that these can be studied in a computer, especially in a CAD process. Also called FE analysis … Dictionary of automotive terms
Finite element updating — Finite element model updating is a process of making sure that finite element analysis results in models that better reflect the measured data than the initial models. It is part of Verification Validation (V V) of numerical models.This process… … Wikipedia
Finite element method — The finite element method (FEM) (sometimes referred to as finite element analysis) is a numerical technique for finding approximate solutions of partial differential equations (PDE) as well as of integral equations. The solution approach is based … Wikipedia
Finite element method in structural mechanics — Finite element method (FEM) is a powerful technique originally developed for numerical solution of complex problems in structural mechanics, and it remains the method of choice for complex systems. In the FEM, the structural system is modeled by… … Wikipedia
Finite element machine — The Finite Element Machine (FEM)[1] was a late 1970s early 1980s NASA[2] project to build and evaluate the performance of a parallel computer for structural analysis. The FEM was completed and successfully tested at the NASA Langley Research… … Wikipedia

Engineering treatment of the finite element method — This is a draft of a new explanation as suggested on . The finite element method (FEM) is a technique for finding approximate solutions to differential equations that is particularly useful in engineering. As of 2005, FEM is the primary analysis… … Wikipedia
Analysis — (from Greek ἀνάλυσις , a breaking up ) is the process of breaking a complex topic or substance into smaller parts to gain a better understanding of it. The technique has been applied in the study of mathematics and logic since before Aristotle,… … Wikipedia
