Product Description

For courses in finite element methods, finite element analysis taught in departments of Civil, Mechanical, Aerospace, Agriculture, and Mechanics departments. Course for which this book is appropriate is usually taught to seniors or graduate students.Comprehensive -- this text explores the full range of finite element methods used in engineering practice for actual applications in computer-aided design. It provides not only an introduction to finite element methods and the commonality in the various techniques, but explores state-of-the-art methods as well -- with a focus on what are deemed to become "classical techniques" -- procedures that will be standard and authoritative for finite element analysis for years to come. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Text on Finite Element for postgraduate, March 16, 2000
By John Williams "Will" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finite Element Procedures (Part 1-2) (Paperback)
Bathe's approach in writing this book makes it a distinguishing one from the "sea" of finite element text books. I personally owns 14 books on finite element method, this book and the other two are the only three I keep on my bookshelf, the rest are really quite garbage and packed up in paper boxes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, top notch, January 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Finite Element Procedures (Part 1-2) (Paperback)
A thorough and comprehensive finite element text that not only covers the finite element theory for structures, CFD, and heat transfer but is also directed towards practical applications. A must for anyone interested in the finite element method, researcher or practicing engineer. This is the only text I have encountered which explains theoretical issues in a manner understandable to an engineer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hi level book., September 19, 2004
By Marco G F Capozzi (Starkville, MS. USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Finite Element Procedures (Part 1-2) (Paperback)
The book is keystone for those involved in FEA. It covers all the aspects of Finite Element formulation of physical problems, thought in a more coincise way with respect to , say, Zienkiewicz work and in a less prosaic way. As with many other FE books, the level of mathematics involved in the book is quite high, especially if one considers the non linear finite element formulation for continuum mechanics. Even though the book is mainly intended for structural engineers, it covers fluid dynamics and heat transfer topics. The section I mostly used was the one regarding solution methods for FEM problems: here, Dr Bathe makes a really nice job (about 150 pages). There's a code at the end of the book, it's a FORTRAN 77 one, but one can translate it into a more modern language (I guess we all should get the rid of FORTRAN 77....).
Exercises on non linear FEM tend to be hard, but if you can get the solution book it should't represent a problem.
Two more things: even if the book, as aforementioned, mainly focuses on structural mechanics, there's a common background in FEM problem formulation regardless the particular subject it is intended for.
Second: the book is a very good one, but in my opinion if one intends to study only the basics of FEM, Reddy's book is more suitable for the purpouse. On the other hand, if one intends to pursue a higher level of FEM understanding, this book is a must. This book should be on the shelf of every serious FEM analyst. What's more...I guess Dr. Klaus Jurgen Bathe has to be a very nice person! :-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book
This is great book. Quite vigorous in the derivations, no hand waving. I taught myself nonlinear FEA from this book. I'd say it's more graduate level though.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better know your stuff.
It maybe good for the well versed FE student, I had it as a text in college and got little value out of it. I talks at a high level and never gives a undergrad a chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the faint hearted
Prof. Bathe's book summarizes the information that can only be found by searching dozens of other books. Great concise work on finite elements. What more can I say?
