[Scilab-users] FEA in Scilab

[Michael J. McCann]

Federico,
This isn't really an answer but I have in hand a book;

"Introduction to  Finite and Spectral Element Methods Using MATLAB",
  C.Pozrikidis,     CRC Press,    2014     ISBN978.1.4822.0915.0
It might provide models for coding even if the dialect is different.

Mike.
