Programming the Finite Element Method or Enterprise Architecture A to Z

Programming the Finite Element Method

Author: D V Griffiths

This title demonstrates how to develop computer programmes which solve specific engineering problems using the finite element method. It enables students, scientists and engineers to assemble their own computer programmes to produce numerical results to solve these problems. The first three editions of Programming the Finite Element Method established themselves as an authority in this area.  This fully revised 4th edition includes completely rewritten programmes with a unique description and list of parallel versions of programmes in Fortran 90.  The Fortran programmes and subroutines described in the text will be made available on the Internet via anonymous ftp, further adding to the value of this title.

Intended to help readers assemble computer programs to solve particular engineering problems by using building blocks specifically designed for computations via the finite element technique. Topics: spatial discretization by finite elements, programming finite element computations, static equilibrium of structures and of elastic solids, material nonlinearity, steady state flow, uncoupled and coupled transient problems, eigenvalue problems, and forced vibrations. Several appendices supply the building block subroutines necessary to build the programs described in the book, as well as information on nodal loads, geometry subroutines, and plastic stress-strain matrices and plastic potential.

Enterprise Architecture A to Z: Frameworks, Business Process Modeling, SOA, and Infrastructure Technology

Author: Daniel Minoli

Driven by the need and desire to reduce costs, organizations are faced with a set of decisions that require analytical scrutiny. Designing State-of-the-Art Data Centers examines cost-saving trends in planning, administration, and management. To establish a framework for discussion, this book begins by evaluating the role of Enterprise Architecture planning and Service Oriented modeling. The text presents an assessment of storage technologies and networking as well as addresses regulatory and security issues. Additional coverage includes high-speed communication mechanisms such as Ethernet, WAN and Internet communication technologies, broadband communications, and chargeback models.
