Authored by a respected scientist with a growing international reputation this
is a self-contained text that can be used by the beginners and the experts
alike, to study the basic aspects of finite element modelling. It provides a
sound physical understanding of the basis on which mathematical models of
polymer processes are built.
* Written from a chemical engineering rather then a mathematical perspective it
enables the reader to get up to speed in a relatively short time
* Provides the 'parts and tools' required to assemble finite element models,
applicable to situations that arise under realistic conditions
* Discusses and compares specific finite element schemes that provide
