| Aim: The course aims at giving basic knowledge of the Finite Element Method (FEM) necessary for utilising it as a tool in daily engineering work. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) Solid mechanics Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Organisation: The course is given during period 4. The theoretical part gives 3 p and the computer exercise gives 1 p. |
|||
| Course contents: The course is an introduction to the Finite Element Method. One-dimensional second-order elasticity and heat-transfer problems are discussed. A one-dimensional forth order beam problem is also included. Finally, multi-dimensional second order elasticity and heat transfer problems will be reviewed. The method is explained as a Galerkin approximation to the weak formulation of the boundary-value problem at hand. |
