3 cr

Objectives

The student gains control of applications that can be used to solve challenging structural mechanics problems. The student can solve problems in structural mechanics both by manual methods and with computer assistance, and can analyze the obtained results and their significance in structural design.

The goal of the study course is to deepen graduate studies in the mechanics of structures by utilizing different application programs.

Content

• Stiffening of structures
• Behavior of structures in accident situations
• Continuous collapse
• Basics of second-order theory through computer programs
• Combination models (rods and shells) and their solutions with computer assistance
• FEM software and features and phenomena related to calculation
