Aim

The course is addressed to undergraduate students (6th semester) and refers to the solution of Mechanics problems with the Finite Element Method. The target of the course is the introduction to the Finite Element Method and its application to problems of deformable bodies and structural mechanics, also in related boundary‐value problems (e.g. heat transfer or potential flow). Emphasis is given to applications and programming techniques.

Syllabus
  • Discrete systems
  •  Continuous systems
  •  Introduction to numerical methods
  •  Finite elements in one‐dimensional problems
  •  Two‐dimensional boundary‐value problems
  •  Finite elements in two‐dimensional problems
  •  Finite elements with higher‐order shape functions – isoparametric elements
  •  Programming of the finite element method
