Finite Element Methods for Bachelors students
7.5 ECTS creditsInstruction is in the form of lectures and exercises with FEM software and focuses on:
- matrix statistics
- element stiffness matrices for different types of elements, primarily bars, beams, and plane elements
- assembly of stiffness matrix structures
-linear elastic analysis of elastic supporting bar structures, beam and shell constructions, and plane and asymmetrical structures
- linear stability and neutral frequency analysis
