It seems only reasonable to attempt to solve verysmall academic-type textbook FEA problems with a pencil, paper, and calculator. CommercialFEA software, such as ANSYS1, has advanced to the point that a person with essentially nobackground in vibration theory or in the fundamentals of the finite element method can readilyobtain solutions for vibration characteristics of complicated structures. It seems, however, that acompetent engineer should have an understanding of the basis for the software calculations andenough knowledge of vibration theory to notice when software results are unreasonable.MATLAB2, a widely-used software package, is a very useful
