Abstract

En 中文
Smartphones have become increasingly powerful and widespread, enabling complex numerical computations that were once limited to desktop systems. However, implementing high-precision Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on mobile devices remains challenging due to constraints in memory, processing speed, and energy efficiency. This paper presents an optimized algorithmic framework for performing FEA on mobile platforms, focusing on the adaptation of meshing and iterative solver strategies to resource-limited environments. Several iterative solvers for large sparse linear systems are compared, and predefined refined meshing techniques are implemented to balance computational cost and accuracy. A two-dimensional bridge model is used to validate the proposed methods and demonstrate their numerical stability and computational efficiency on smartphones. The results confirm the feasibility of executing reliable FEA directly on mobile hardware, highlighting the potential of portable, low-cost devices as platforms for computational mechanics and algorithmic simulation in engineering and education.
