    This document outlines the key steps in the finite element method for structural analysis. It describes how the method involves: 1) Discretizing a structure into elements and nodes and calculating the stiffness matrix and nodal forces for each element. 2) Assembling the global stiffness matrix and force vector by combining the element matrices and vectors. 3) Solving the system of linear equations to find the displacements at each node.
