The book "Structural Analysis with the Finite Element Method. Linear Statics" by Eugenio Oñate provides a comprehensive introduction to the linear static analysis of structures using the Finite Element Method (FEM). It is based on the lecture notes from a course that has been taught for over 30 years at the Technical University of Catalonia in Barcelona. The first volume focuses on the fundamentals of FEM and offers a detailed description of the finite element formulation for various structural models, including axially loaded bars, elastic problems in the plane, rotationally symmetric solids, and general three-dimensional solids. Each chapter addresses the underlying theory relevant to the respective models and provides practical guidance for application in civil engineering practice. Additionally, various supplementary topics are covered, such as the treatment of inclined supports, elastic foundations, and techniques for error estimation and adaptive mesh refinement. The book concludes with a chapter on the machine generation and visualization of FEM results.
