Finite Element Analysis Procedure

The document outlines the process of finite element analysis which involves converting a physical problem into a mathematical model governed by differential equations. This model is then represented using a finite element solution which involves choosing finite elements, mesh density, and solution parameters. The accuracy of the finite element solution and mathematical model are then assessed, and the results are interpreted, with refinements made to the analysis or design as needed.
