    The document provides guidelines for students to follow when writing lab reports for finite element method (FEM) analysis assignments. Reports should be precise and concise, demonstrating an understanding of the course material. FEM results must be verified with hand calculations based on mechanics of materials principles. Students should show their work clearly, including what was analyzed, procedures used, results, brief discussions, and conclusions. Relevant figures and plots from FEM software should be included using screenshots. Reports should follow a standard format with numbered sections for the cover page, problem statement, procedures, results and comparisons, FEM model screenshots, solutions, and theoretical calculations.

    Guidelines for Lab Reports:

    Precise and concise reports are expected that reflect the student has some understanding of the material. FEM results should be verified and supported by Material of Mechanics and hand calculations. Show your work clean and clear: what is being analyzed, procedure used, results, brief discussions and conclusions. Show relevant figures and analysis plots from the FEM code using copy and paste. Print in color if it makes the report more effective. For screen shots a tool in Windows 7 called Snipping Tool is efficient for copy, cut and paste. Following is more details of these steps for Each Problem: 1. Cover page (Name, Lab Assignment #, Title and Date Submitted) 1 Page 2. Repeat the actual problem being solved (Cut & paste from assignment sheet) 1 Page 3. What will be the procedure steps for both FEM code & theoretical verification? 1 Page 4. Summary of all results, comparisons and verification. 1 Page 5. Show the steps of building FEM model by screen shots from computer (use several screen shots per page) and write and repeat the key values from the screen shots with proper units. Write on your picture and shots to clarify and magnify. All numbers should carry a unit. 4 pages 6. Solutions/answers for the problem and analysis of the result by screen shots and by theoretical calculations (MOM). Compare the FEM and theoretical results by making tables that are simple and show only relevant information. 5 Pages 7. All material pertaining to a problem should be compiled as a single unit. Means if the assignment contains two problems then create two separate units, however, stapled together. 8. Theoretical computation should show all the formulae and reference material and your justification for using this formula. 9. Show screen shots that are important with readable information. No need to show every detail step. 10. All page sizes should be 8.5 x 11. No need to use thick photo paper. Try to use color print for contours (Stresses & Displacements). 11. All numerical values from FEM and theoretical computations should be accompanied by consistent units.
