Introductory book

[mhechthz]

Hi, I'm quite exited about the ease of usage and the "natural" approach to solving PDE's with Gridap. Nevertheless I'm not so familiar with FEM. I played around with Fenics and Python and it worked at the end, but the documentation was limited.

So I wonder, if there will be a book on introduction to FEM by using Gridap, where on one hand theory is explained and on the other full examples including usage of special characters like \esh ʃ , meshing and final vizualization using ParaView is explained (I have one in german where Matlab/Gnu Octave is used for examples but I think Gridap is much more suited).

I have been an end user of commercial FEM packages, but I only have recently begun studying FEM implementation.

I have found the following resources useful to supplement information in the Gridap arxiv papers, tutorials, talks and documentation.

• The FEniCS Book, particularly section I on Methodology covering chapters 2 through 9
• defelement.com for illustrations of various finite element basis functions
• David Ham and Colin Cotter's Finite Element course at Imperial College London
