Finite Element Programming in Non-linear Geomechanics and Transient Flow delivers a textbook reference for both students and practitioners alike, with provided codes to understand and modify. Starting with the fundamentals, the reference covers the basics of finite element methods, including coupling geomechanics and transient fluid flow. The next phase moves from theory into practical application from programs Flow3D and Geo3D, utilizing source codes to solve real field challenges. Stability of perforations during oil and gas production, sand production problems, rock failure, casing collapse, and reservoir compaction problems are just some examples.

Next, the reference elevates to hands-on experience, sharing source codes with additional problems engineers can work on independently. This gives students and engineers a starting point to modify their own code in a fraction of the time.
