Application of FEM

  • In the field of Mechanical /Aerodynamics/ automobile/civil
  • Heat transfer
  • Fluid flow
  • Electric and magnetic field
  • Biomedical Engineering Problem

Advantages of FEM

  • FEM can perform complex analysis
  • It can handle complex geometry
  • It can handle complex boundary condition and loading conditions
  • It can handle anisotropic and non homogeneous material
  • It is enable to computer programming

Disadvantages of FEM

  • High computational time
  • Required better computers and memory units
  • Required trained and skilled operators
  • Need to validates the result
  • In fluid dynamics FVM is better then FEM
