me338A - continuum mechanics
goals
basic concepts of finite elements, with applications to problems confronted by mechanical designers. linear static, modal, and thermal formulations; nonlinear and dynamic formulations. students implement simple element formulations. application of a commercial finite element code in analyzing design problems. issues: solution methods, modeling techniques features of various commercial codes, basic problem definition. Individual projects focus on the interplay of analysis and testing in product design and development. prerequisite: math103, or equivalent. recommended: me80, or equivalent in structural and/or solid mechanics; some exposure to principles of heat transfer.
