有限元方法在国际范围内广泛应用,已为现代化设计强有力的工具。回顾它的发生与发展是与电子计算机紧密相关的。在六十年代强调程序要大型通用,建立程序库。举例来说:西德ASKA结构分析自动系统程序,结构分析领域内设计都可计算,因此称为大型通用程序。从历史演变来看,这是非常必要的,因为经典的数学力学方法是解决不了复杂工程设计问 The finite element method has been widely used in the international arena and has been a powerful tool for modernization. Recall that its occurrence and development are closely related to electronic computers. In the 1960s, it was emphasized that the program should be large-scale and universal, and establish a program library. For example: West Germany ASKA structural analysis automatic system program, the design of the structural analysis field can be calculated, so called large-scale general-purpose program. From the historical evolution point of view, this is very necessary because the classical mathematical mechanics method cannot solve the problem of complex engineering design.
