Schedule
  • Introduction

    The course provides background knowledge for the finite element method (used for trusses, beams and diaphragms), so that the student can understand the structure of finite element method (FEM) software and the limits and possibilities of element analyses. Furthermore, the course teaches the students about capacity calculations for trusses, beams and frames using plastic theory and the second-order theory of deflection.

  • Required preliminary courses

    No requirements over and above the admission requirements.

  • Learning outcomes

    After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

    Knowledge

    The student is familiar with:

    • matrix statics and the finite element method
    • second order deflection theory
    • plastic theory

    Skills

    The student is capable of:

    • conducting manual calculations using matrix statics
    • conducting rupture strength calculations for beams and frames based on plastic flow
    • using theory and FEM software to design specific structures, such as trusses, arches, frames, girder lattices etc., that will be exposed to different loads (including temperature loads)

    General competence

    The student:

    • is capable of explaining the principles of element analysis
    • is capable of critically assessing the results when comparing theoretical and numerical calculations
    • understands the difference between elastic and plastic capacity
  • Teaching and learning methods

    Lectures and exercises.

  • Course requirements

    The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can sit the exam:

    • 3 of 4 assigment
  • Assessment

    Individual written exam, 3 hours.

    The exam results can be appealed.

  • Permitted exam materials and equipment

    I dette emnet skal du lære om mikroorganismers levemåte, virulens og smittemåte.;Du skal studere smittekjeden og hvordan tiltak kan iverksettes for å bryte hvert ledd av kjeden for å forhindre smitte. Videre studeres hygiene relatert til miljøet som omgir pasientene og hvordan basale smittevernsrutiner kan forebygge smitte og infeksjoner. Du skal sette deg inn i aktuelle lover og forskrifter relatert til meldeplikt og tvang.; I dette emne skal du også lære om antibiotikaresistens, infeksjonsforebygging og pasientsikkerhet.;
