MESHING, FEM AND TYPES OF ELEMENTS
Hey guys, Let's talk about the meshing of FEA, FEM, and its types. That is really an important concept of FEA that every FEA analyst needs to know. The basic theme for the generation of mesh is to make the calculation at the finite no of point and then interpolate the result at the entire surface and domain. For example the above dig. shows that if we have a surface and want to calculate the result then we cant calculate it bcoz of where in the domain having an infinite no of points and each point having 6 dof so the total equation created is infinite. In another way in dig 2 we are dividing the domain in some finite no of points and the equation generated is 48. The Finite Element Method reduces dof from an infinite no of points to a finite no of points with the help of discretization i.e. meshing (Nodes & Elements) All calculation made at nodes and th...
