this is the description of what I've been given for my final year project:
Speaking with my supervisor I was suggested to read the following books, I know there is a lot of experienced people on here so I was wondering if any of you would recommend any other books as well as the following:
Or if you could tell me to avoid some of the below books (maybe they aren't so good)

My lecturer also said that I could make this an FEM problem (finite element method) and so any books on that would be great. Thanks.
