Understanding Solid Mechanics: Stress Analysis Approaches
You don't need in-depth knowledge about FEA or computational simulation. A working knowledge of engineering design and analysis is all you need to start out with.
You will learn about the solid mechanics and basic theories that are widely used in engineering design, analysis and simulation.
Each session is a building block - over the five weeks, you will cover:
- Statics, Forces and Equilibrium in Design
- Elasticity, Stresses and Strains
- Constitutive/Material relationships
- Hand (or ‘Back-of-the-envelope’) calculations
- Boundary Conditions and Applied Loads
