In order to make it a more tlfective text book. the author has felt the necessity of providing exercises under each chapter and also including additional material fand references wherever appropriate. The second edition is aimed to fulfil these requirements and the salient additional features are explained below In the brief review of the principles of structural mechanics in Chapter 2, expressions for the consideration of initial stress, strain and temperature eflects are included Use of Lagrange interpolation function for the derivation of shape eseribed in Chapter 3 under the new section Lagrange ‘and Serendipity Elements. Tn some cases of discretization, triangular elements are needed. ‘A new section on Triangular Elements is included in Chapter 4 on Isoparametric Elements. Computational aspects of element stifiness matrix are also diseusse. "The five basic steps to be followed in finite element analysis are illustrated through an example in Chapter 5. ‘The patch test provides a simple means of testing the validity of clement formulation and its implementation in a computer program, ‘A brief introduction to the procedure is added in Chapter 8. In the last few years considerable amount of research has been carried out on the analysis of thin plates. The shear deformation in plaies, the Reissner-Mindlin theory (or referred (o as Mindlin’s the- bry) and its application to the analysis of thin plates are described in detail in Chapter 10, ‘The shear locking problems and the selec- tive/reduced integration techniques are also discussed therei "Though the majority of finite element application in engineer. ing design is in the area of structural nnechanics, it has been found jn many situations that stress analysis due to tempeature requires ‘computation of distribution of teniperature in a body, A new Chap: fer (12) on Conduction Heat ‘Transfer has been contributed,
