Rezensionen

'Upon completion of this book a student or researcher would be well prepared to employ finite elements for an application problem or proceed to the cutting edge of research in finite element methods. The accuracy and the thoroughness of the book are excellent.' Anthony Kearsley, National Institute of Standards and Technology
