Course Topics Include:

Finite Element Method
The numerical methods used in finite element analysis will be briefly discussed.

Understanding the physical structure
To understand the physical structure, one must understand where the heat is coming from, and where it is going. Critical areas in the model shall be determined, if possible, before the analysis begins.

Understanding the capability of the modeling tools
Understand what building blocks are available in th...
