Finite volume method — The finite volume method is a method for representing and evaluating partial differential equations as algebraic equations. Similar to the finite difference method, values are calculated at discrete places on a meshed geometry. Finite volume… … Wikipedia
Finite element method — The finite element method (FEM) (sometimes referred to as finite element analysis) is a numerical technique for finding approximate solutions of partial differential equations (PDE) as well as of integral equations. The solution approach is based … Wikipedia
Finite element method in structural mechanics — Finite element method (FEM) is a powerful technique originally developed for numerical solution of complex problems in structural mechanics, and it remains the method of choice for complex systems. In the FEM, the structural system is modeled by… … Wikipedia
Method of lines — The method of lines (MOL, NMOL, NUMOL) (Schiesser, 1991; Hamdi, et al., 2007; Schiesser, 2009 ) is a technique for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) in which all but one dimension is discretized. MOL allows standard, general purpose… … Wikipedia
Finite-difference frequency-domain — The finite difference frequency domain (FDFD) is a numerical solution for problems usually in electromagnetism. The method is, of course, based on finite difference approximations of the derivative operators in the differential equation being… … Wikipedia
