Nothing Great about it
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3
I have used this book as Beginner of FEA and didn't find it interesting. It deals with more theoretical aspects of FEA. It does really deal with using FEA on a regular basis. May be it's the person who taught the class made me disinterested in the book... others might find it interesting. I believe that the Theory behind FEA is important before even you start working on the software, but this is not the book I would recommend to read before you start.

The best introductory book written in finite element method
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
The chapters are very well organized. The material is very easy to understand. There are several fully worked out problems in each chapter that gives a solid foundation of the theory discussed in that chapter. Variational methods and Galerkin formulations are very well explained in a manner that is very easy to understand. Although most of the concentration is on solid mechanics and heat transfer, there is a brief introduction to cfd. Overall, this book is a must, if you are planning to continue you studies in applied mechanics or related fields. I sincerely hope that the author Daryl.L. Logan has plans to write a similar book in Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis.

Logic, language and notations have made all the difference.
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
Topics builds up in a logical order. The languageused through out is stimulating and easy to understand. Mathematical notations are straight forward. This book is a must have for both begginners and the seasoned professionals who do Finite Element Analyis.
