+A **finite element** is a discrete part within a larger domain, used to approximate complex physical systems. These simple geometric shapes, often triangles or quadrilaterals, help numerically solve [Partial Differential Equations](/wiki/partial_differential_equation) across various fields like [Engineering](/wiki/engineering) by breaking down continuous problems into manageable pieces.
