This course offers an in-depth exploration of the finite element method (FEM) for solving problems in physics and engineering. The curriculum is structured to provide a strong theoretical foundation alongside practical implementation skills. Beginning with one-dimensional elliptic problems, the course progresses to cover three-dimensional scalar and vector problems, including steady-state and transient analyses. Key topics include the formulation of weak forms, discretization techniques, basis functions, and numerical integration. The course emphasizes the mathematical rigor underlying FEM, covering aspects of functional analysis and variational calculus to explain why the method works so well. Students will learn to develop FEM code using C++ and the deal.II library, gaining hands-on experience with real-world applications. The course also covers advanced topics such as error analysis, convergence studies, and time integration schemes for parabolic and hyperbolic problems. By the end of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of FEM theory and the skills to implement it for a wide range of physics and engineering problems.
