==History==

Exploration of the approach employed in the applied element method began in 1995 at the [[University of Tokyo]] as part of Dr. Hatem Tagel-Din's research studies. The term "applied element method" itself, however, was first coined in 2000 in a paper called "Applied element method for structural analysis: Theory and application for linear materials".<ref name=AEMTheory>{{cite journal|last1=Meguro |first1=K. |last2=Tagel-Din |first2=H. |title=Applied element method for structural analysis: Theory and application for linear materials |journal=Structural Engineering/Earthquake Engineering |volume=17 |issue=1 |pages=21–35 |publisher=Japan Society of Civil Engineers |___location=Japan |year=2000 |url=http://sciencelinks.jp/j-east/article/200014/000020001400A0511912.php |id=F0028A |access-date=2009-08-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120229032846/http://sciencelinks.jp/j-east/article/200014/000020001400A0511912.php |archive-date=2012-02-29 }}</ref> Since then AEM has been the subject of research by a number of [[academic institution]]s and the driving factor in real-world applications.
