Learning outcomes
|
The aim of this course is to introduce students to the Finite Element Method (FEM) applied to problems of linear statics, loss of stability and natural vibration of structures. The students will acquire the theoretical basis of the method and they will also solve practical tasks by means of the computer programs COSMOS/M and COSMOSWorks individually.
On completing the FEM-I course, the student can solve simple tasks of linear statics and natural vibration by means of the computer program COSMOS/M, COSMOSWorks individually. Based on the achieved results of the analysis, the student is able to evaluate strength and fatigue according to valid norms and standards or more precisely according to modern scientific and technical knowledge.
