Abstract

The practical implementation of finite element analysis usually involves extensive use of matrix algebra. The evaluation of integrals is an important task in finite element analysis and involves many operations on systems of equations such as addition, subtraction, inner products, matrix inversion, matrix decomposition, etc.

An equation has no meaning for me unless it expresses a thought of God.

—Srinivasa Ramanujan
