Abstract
The application of numerical methods, particularly the Finite Element (FE) method, is widespread in the analysis and design of components operating at elevated temperatures. A brief overview of the FE method and the Boundary Element (BE) method is presented. To demonstrate the versatility and accuracy of FE solutions in modelling practical engineering problems, several examples are presented. The examples include indentation creep involving the reference stress approach, the use of damage mechanics, and creep crack propagation simulation. The FE solutions are shown to be in good agreement with analytical and experimental results.
