Mathematical and numerical modeling of physical processes, A general introduction to the Finite Element Method:
Fundamental steps, Application of the Finite Element Method to simple structural systems: Direct approach, Review of the
fundamental equations of linear elasticity and mechanical behavior of one dimensional (1-D) structural systems, Finite
element formulation of structural mechanics problems by using the ‘minimum total potential energy principle’, Variational
formulation of differential equations and its relation with finite element analysis, Characteristics of the Finite Element Method:
Primary and secondary variables, interpolation functions, convergence, Finite element analysis of 1-D structural systems: Bars,
shafts, beams and frames, An example of commercial finite element softwares: Ansys, Application of Ansys to 1-D structural
problems, Application of a symbolic mathematical solver (Mathematica) for linear algebra problems. |
