摘要
Object-oriented programming, as an alternative to traditional, procedural programming methods for finite element analysis, is growing rapidly in importance as algorithms and programs become more complex. This paper reviews some of the literature and seeks to explain some of the concepts of object-oriented thinking most useful to the finite element programmer, using as an example a C++ implementation of a heat transfer and solidification program.
