Description
Edited on the occasion of Prof. Olgierd C. Zienkiewicz' 70th
birthday, this book contains original contributions from
eminent scientists dealing with a wide range of theoretical
aspects of the Finite Element Method and its application to
a variety of engineering problems. The book provides an
overview of the state-of-the-art of finite element
technology in the last decade of the 20th century.
