Abstract

Structural mechanics in the civil or mechanical engineering domain typically poses a variety of systems of partial differential equations on arbitray shaped domains with mutiple boundary conditions, constraints and couplings. Due to their flexibility in solving these problems, FE Methods have become very popular methods of approximation.
