A computational technique used to solve complex engineering and mathematical physics problems by dividing continuous systems into smaller, manageable discrete elements. The authors describe an eight-step process for implementing the method, starting with the subdivision of a body and ending with the interpretation of results. The text emphasizes two primary mathematical frameworks for deriving element equations: variational procedures based on energy principles and weighted residual methods, spe
