We know that finite element methods work wonders with structural problems. However, myself and most other use Finite volume method in fluids. I agree that fluxes are conserved better in finite volume and this method is easy for arbitrary geometries. But are these the main reasons?

I actually have studied Finite element approach as area of my undergraduate civil engineering direction. We specifically used Strand 7 to study displacements, pressure and stress of a structure. Strand 7 is particularly a lot straight forward to capture up with. beside the appliance kit you'll how you may study platforms by ability of hand. in reality it relies upon on matrices. you'll how you may study bars, trusses, beams and frames. those platforms keep on with particularly a lot a similar approach. more often than not it really is not a not straight forward unit. reliable success
