Course Objectives The objectives of this course are to teach students the Finite Element Method (FEM) and to convey the basic ideas on which the method is founded upon. The basic principles as well as the programming aspects of the method with applications in solids and fluids will be presented in a unified manner so that the students with diverse backgrounds can later apply the method to problems of their individual interests. The students will be asked to complete a project involving an aspect of the finite element method in an area of their interest. The topics must be computational and may be selected from different disciplines.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
Course Content Concepts of finite element analysis such as principle of virtual work, finite element solution procedures, heat transfer analysis, finite element analysis of solids, fluids and structures.
