Finite Element Method

Finite Element Method

Semester: 1
Assessment: exam
Method of teaching: lectures and seminars
Total hours: 30 lectures and 30 Seminars (Academic Hours)
ECTS credits 5

Students obtain knowledge on the modern theory and application of FEM for analysis of building structures and facilities. Skills are being acquired for dealing with wide range of problems: mechanical/mathematical formulation of one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional problems of the structural mechanics, algorithms and their computer rimplemetation, use of various types of finite elements for modelling of complex 3-D structures. Students are introduced to contemporary program packages. Experience is gained for modelling, analysis and interpretation of results obtained through FEM.
