Re FEM codes

Refer the book

"Matlab guide to finite elements , an interactive approach"

A good frame work for the fem coding you can get from this book. But most of the codes in this may not be computationally efficient , and you may have to modify that suitably.

Hi I am using

I am using MATLAB for FEM. I am refering following books:

1. MATLAB Codes for Finite Element Analysis: Solids and Structures - A. J. M. Ferreira

2. The Finite Element Method using MATLAB - Young W. Kwon

Both the books discussed well and gave enough codes. Refering these one can easily develop his/her own code for required problem. They have discussed linear FEM only. But I feel they have given enough idea about FEM in MATLAB.

What is your problem exactly.......?

Thank you MR Sreenath AM. I

Thank you MR Sreenath AM. I am refering to the book you have recommended.

Hi sreenivas

I will certainly go through the books you have mentioned.

I am working on problems in FEM mainly non-linear. There is a book called Finite Element in Plasticity by DRJ-OWEN they have discussed solution of non linear problems.

But the codes they have explained are in Fortran language. I am trying to write those code in MATLAB using methods they have explained (Newton-raphson, Tangential stiffness method etc.)
