Prerequisites
The course requires the knowledge of Structural Mechanics. Elements of Numerical Analysis
and Programming are also important.
Learning outcomes
The course is intended primarily to provide the student with the necessary elements to complete the basic training in the discipline, only partially developed in the Bachelor's level. It also provides some additional content, with the goal of forming an Engineer with the basic structural skills and still able to properly deal with the most complex problems.
Course contents
Elements of continuum mechanics
Advanced structural analysis
Automatic structural analysis by the finite element method
Plates and shells - Definitions and formulations
Tanks and pipes - Solutions for special cases
