General steps involved in solving a structural problem using Finite Element Method (FEM):
1. Create a geometric model of the structure.
2. Divide the structure into smaller, finite elements.
3. Define the material properties and boundary conditions.
4. Develop a system of equations for each finite element.
5. Assemble the global system of equations by combining the individual element equations.
6. Apply boundary conditions to the global system of equations.
7. Solve the system of equations using numerical techniques.
8. Evaluate the results and check for accuracy.
9. Make any necessary modifications and repeat the process until satisfactory results are obtained.
