Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The aim of the subject is:
- to understand basic principles of finite element method as the tool for the solution of engineering problems
- to analyse the technical problem given and to assess possibilities of its solution using the finite element method, to choose the proper approach of the solution (linear vs. non-linear analysis)
- to solve real linear engineering problems with the focus on structural and thermal tasks - the ability to propose and create the proper model and to interpret results obtained

Summary
324/5000
The course aims to acquaint students of the follow-up study of design with the finite element method as a tool for solving practically oriented linear problems of technical practice. Theoretical teaching of the basic principles of the method is supplemented by solving specific engineering problems by the method of computer modeling.
