This lecture covers the formulation of finite element method with a focus on the local approach, including the elementary matrices and vectors of rigidity and external forces, assembly operations, and examples of finite element assembly and application. It also discusses the stiffness matrix, change of landmark, global stiffness matrix, system of linear equations, and practical application examples using MATLAB.
