What are the industrial applications of finite element method ?

The finite element method (FEM) is a powerful technique originally developed for numerical solution of complex problems in structural mechanics, and it remains the method of choice for complex systems. In the FEM, the structural system is modeled by a set of appropriate finite elements interconnected at points called nodes. Elements may have physical properties such as thickness, coefficient of thermal expansion, density, Young's modulus

in The beginning the finite element method is a numerical analysis method of to find a design solutions.And industrial examples : bridges, tunnels, dams and reservoirs.,,,,,,,,,,

FEA is used to simulate the task or the work to be done in a virtual environment so that the many trial and error in the process can be avoided with out involving much labor cost and material wastage. It also saves time

There are so many application in real world. Many of things are designed considering FEM. Vehicles , bridges, buildings etc........  

Aeronautical, biomechanical, and automotive industries commonly use integrated Finite Element Method in design and development of their products. Finite Element Method allows entire designs to be constructed, refined, and optimized before the design is manufactured.
