Numerical and Finite Difference Methods
This chapter focuses on the applications of numerical and finite difference methods for the solution of BEF and PEF. The method of undetermined parameters, methods of weighted residuals (i.e., collocation, subdomain) and Galerkin's method are explained using simple examples. The finite difference method (which is more commonly used for the solution of foundation analysis) is presented in detail. Footings modeled either as beams or plates on Winkler's soil medium, subjected to general loads and boundary conditions, are also discussed. Several examples are presented as well.
