Brief description | : |
This course contains the introduction, history of the development of finite element method and its application in civil engineering. Approach solution concept, optimization criteria, weighted residual method: collocation method, subdomain, least-square, and Galerkin. Theoretical development, numerical computation, and limit condition. Element concept: discretization, convergen condition, random point, assembly rule, trial function and Gauss integration in element, coordinate transformation. Solution and application strategy in hydraulic engineering. 3D elasticity theory, balance equation, strain-displacement, stress-strain, compatibility. Energy method, potential energy, and minimum potential energy, Rayleigh-Ritz. Finite Element Method displacement formulation; 2D element: plane stress, plane strain, axissymmetry, flexure plate, and plate above elastic foundation; 3D element: plate, shell, and solid. Dynamic analysis, non-linear geometry, and non-linear material. Application in structural engineering, geotechnical and pavement. Introduction to several software in civil engineering. |
