VII Semester Mechanical Engineering ME 1401 - FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS Short Q & A 1) What is meant by finite element analysis? Finite element method is a numerical method for solving problems of engineering mathematical physics. In the finite element method, instead of solving the problem for the entire body in one operation, we formulate the equations for each finite element and combine them to obtain the solution of the whole body. 2) What is meant by finite element? A small unit having definite shape of geometry and nodes is called finite element. 3) State the methods of engineering analysi
