Objective of course

Analytical solution of some engineering problems which complicated or impossible solving a numerical modeling method with the finite element method.

Course Learning Output

• In this course learn the basic concepts of finite element method. General external loading in bending with the finite element method calculations, stability calculations, bar account, plane stress, plane strain, plate analysis, dynamic information is obtained about the use of finite element in the external influences.

• Students are expected to use the finite element method of analyzing programs using a computer package.

• Faced with the finite element modeling of engineering problems are expected to be the solution.

• On the market the problems encountered by students and create networks to the problem by selecting the appropriate staff are expected to give a real solution to the boundary conditions.

Course Contents

Finite element method, finite element method in general external loading with bending the account, the finite element method for the stability calculation, the finite element method in dynamic external influences, Figure functions, the finite element method for the bar account (with a rod of finite element method eğilmesinin account, Axial finite element method with a column under the influence of pressure overload burkulmasının account. Plane stress and plane strain (thin plates, plane strain). Plates accounts, the finite element rectangular thin plates with bending perpendicular to the account, account orthotrop stability of the plate with a rectangular finite elements, Thin bending of plates with a triangular finite element calculations.
