hat's a very broad question, but usually the advantages of finite element analysis is they can get you toward a solution when you have a very complicated shape undergoing very complicated loads (temperature, vibration, earthquakes, yielding, spread of plasticity), or you are trying to look at a part in great detail (more common in mechanical engineering).
The disadvantage is the models are time-consuming to create, and verify, can be sensitive to boundary conditions (stress concentrations, local stresses) and sometimes the model needs to be refined repeatedly to give assurance that the results are reasonably accurate/valid.
