Supplementary courses:
Solid Mechanics: The Finite Element Method
|
|
Organisation:
The course is given during period 1 for I and period 3 for M. It consists of a theoretical part and laboratory work.
|
|
Course contents:
The course gives an introduction to solid mechanics. It discusses basic concepts and definitions, simple homogeneous stress states, deflections and stresses in beams, torques applied to shafts, stability of axially loaded columns, Hooke's generalised law, multidimensional stress and deformation analysis and yield criteria.
