This reference explains hybrid-Trefftz finite element method (FEM). Readers are introduced to the basic concepts and general element formulations of the method. This is followed by topics on non-homogeneous parabolic problems thermal analysis of composites and heat conduction in nonlinear functionally graded materials. A brief summary of the fundamental solution based-FEM is also presented followed by a discussion on axisymmetric potential problems and the rotordynamic response of tapered composites. The book is rounded by chapters that cover the n-sided polygonal hybrid finite elements and analysis of piezoelectric materials.

Key Features

- Systematic presentation of 9 topics

- Covers FEMs in two sections: 1) hybrid-Trefftz method and 2) fundamental FEM solutions

- Bibliographic references

- Includes solutions to problems in the numerical analysis of different material types

- Includes solutions to some problems encountered in civil engineering (seepage heat transfer etc).

This reference is suitable for scholars involved in advanced courses in mathematics and engineering (civil engineering/materials engineering). Professionals involved in developing analytical tools for materials and construction testing can also benefit from the methods presented in the book.
