What is the Finite Element Method (FEM)?
In mathematics, partial differential equations (PDEs) can be solved either analytically (exact, continuous) or numerically (approximation, discrete).
Finite element method (FEM) is a numerical method for solving PDEs. FEM is usually applied to solve for PDEs in continuum mechanics for solid mechanics problems.
