Course Objectives: |
The objective of this course is to equip the student with theoretical finite element methods background as well as practical experience. Matrix algebra, truss and beam element formulations, 1D, 2D and 3D element formulations and their analysis procedures will be shown within the theoretical content of that course. Hypermesh, Radioss Linear and Nastran software packages will be introduced. |
