I want some codes in Matlab

I want some codes in Matlab programe of FEM for conduction. You can share for me please

good Matlab codes for FEA

John Burkardt, at Florida State, has posted an excellent suite of Matlab routines for various partial differential equations.  They can be found here

Thank you for your share.

Thank you for your share. It's very kind of you. I have found these code for a long time.

Search for Matlab on iMechanica

I don't have any information on Matlab codes, but here is the search results if you type Matlab in the search box of iMechanica.  Hopefully you can find other mechanicians to help you.


Primary unknowns of FEM formulation

In the FE formulation of beam element, generally, nodal displacement (v) and slope (θ) are taken as primary unknowns. What will be the obstacles if the nutral axis curvature (κ) is used instead of slope as primary unknown, along with nodal displacement?
