Course offered for

  • Mechanical Engineering, M Sc in Engineering

Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Basic Calculus, Linear Algebra, Engineering Mechanics, Solid Mechanics and Material Science, and basic FEM

Intended learning outcomes

The course aims at giving the students

  • knowledge about the phenomena that may jeopardize the functionality and integrity of a component, such as plasticity, stability, resonance, fatigue, crack growth and fracture
  • the ability to carry out basic design work w.r.t. the phenomena listed above
  • the ability to use the Finite Element Method (FEM) in the design work w.r.t. some of the phenomena listed above
  • an understanding of the importance of result evaluation At the end of the course the students shall be able to
    • give an account of the phenomena listed above
    • carry out design work of the type discussed above
    In order to reach the goals of the course, classical lectures and teaching classes will be used in combination with laboratory work (practical and computer based tasks)

    Course content

    Multi-axial states, stress and strain analysis, yield criteria, creep (brief overview), stability of discrete and continuous systems, buckling, vibrations in discrete and continuous systems, resonance, fatigue (crack initiation, crack propagation, total life), fracture criteria, and design work.

    Teaching and working methods

    The course is based on lectures, teaching classes and laboratory classes
