  • 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

Learning outcomes
