The aim of this journal is to provide ideas and information involving the use of the finite element method and its variants, both in scientific inquiry and in professional practice. The scope is intentionally broad, encompassing use of the finite element method in engineering as well as the pure and applied sciences. The emphasis of the journal will be the development and use of numerical procedures to solve practical problems, although contributions relating to the mathematical and theoretical foundations and computer implementation of numerical methods are likewise welcomed. Review articles presenting unbiased and comprehensive reviews of state-of-the-art topics will also be accommodated.
本杂志的目的是提供在科学研究和专业实践中使用有限元法及其变体的思想和信息。范围有意地扩大，包括在工程以及纯科学和应用科学中使用有限元法。该杂志的重点将是发展和使用数值程序来解决实际问题，虽然贡献有关的数学和理论基础和计算机实现的数值方法同样受到欢迎。综述文章提出了公正和全面的审查国家的最先进的主题也将容纳。
