Applied Finite Element Analysis and Modeling

Catalog description

Review of linear elastic finite element analysis (FEA) theory in solid/structural mechanics; review of commercial FEA code use (ANSYS®) in linear elastic applications; introduction to advanced theories, including theories of vibration, material nonlinearities, geometric nonlinearities, structural instabilities, and/or time-dependent deformations (creep); use of ANSYS® to simulate complex structural behavior; model development, verification, and improvement.
