The finite element method has become the most powerful approach in solving partial differential equations arising in modern engineering and physical applications. We present computation and visualisation of the solutions of some applied partial differential equations using the finite element method for most of our examples. Our examples come from solid and fluid mechanics, image processing and heat conduction in sliding meshes.
About the speaker: Dr Lamichhane was awarded the MSc in Industrial Mathematics from the University of Kaiserslautern in 2001, and the PhD in Mathematics from the University of Stuttgart in 2006. He took a postdoctoral fellow at the Australian National University in 2008 and is now a senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle. Dr Lamichhane’s main interests are numeral analysis, differential equations and applied mathematics and his recent research focus is on the approximation of solutions of partial differential equations using the finite element method.
