This practice test is a part of test series of finite element analysis. This test series is for all level of learners. It will help you understand your level of understanding of basic knowledge and how to apply it for real life problems. Use it for various types of exams like GATE and IES preparations. Also this test series will be useful in attending viva voce and appearing for job interviews. Also it can be used for engineering college level exams for knowledge testing purpose.
The test series is on the introduction to FEA. It includes various topics of Finite Element Analysis course and some basic Physics concepts.
First being the basic introduction to Finite Element Analysis course. It also includes the FEA Procedure:(Pre-processing, Processing, Post-processing). Various details of meshing has been covered in this test.
Concept of Discrete and Continuous Models, Weighted Residual Methods - Ritz Technique- Basic Concepts of the Finite Element Method, Definitions of various terms used in FEM like element, order of the element, internal and external node/s, degree of freedom, Minimization of a functional, Principle of minimum total potential, Piecewise Rayleigh-Ritz method, Formulation of 'stiffness matrix', assembly concepts to develop system equation must be revisited before attempting the test.
Steps involved in Finite Element Analysis Solution like Discretization, formation of Element Matrix Equation, Formulation of Global Matrix Equation, and finding the solution are also included. Basics of Direct Application of EME topic questions are also covered here.
Hope you find the test useful, enjoy it and look for the next other series as well!
