Course Description
In this course students learn the theory of elasticity for composite materials used in lightweight structures such as airplanes, race cars, and laptop covers. Students write their own code and simulate deformation in composite materials and work on solving engineering problems in elasticity in a small team. The emphasis of this course is on a theoretical understanding of problems in continuum mechanics, especially elasticity of composite materials. Participants understand elasticity theory, laminate theory, and apply it by solving various engineering examples with open-source codes in Python. Lecture topics include: composite materials, manufacturing of composites, tensor algebra, theory of elasticity, laminate theory, anisotropy, analytical solution of simple structures, continuum mechanics, finite element method, Python. As a prerequisite students should have completed one of the following courses: Introduction to Solid Mechanics, Mechanics of Materials, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Programming Methodology (or worked with any programming language).

DESIGN ANALYSIS 2
UCEAP Quarter Units
6.00
UCEAP Semester Units
4.00
Course Description
The main emphasis of the course is on non-linear design analysis. Design analysis in this context primarily concerns the utilization of computer based analysis methods/techniques for quantitative problem solving in the design process. The finite element method (FEM) is primarily dealt with and methods and techniques for the analysis of non-linear static and dynamic mechanical systems. The course also deals with how computationally expensive analyses can be completed by metamodeling in order to enable time-efficient optimization. The current software programs are ANSYS, WorkBench, Autodesk CFD, modeFRONTIER and PTC. Modelling is a crucial element in the analysis activity, in which the goal is a transfer of the technical solution that has been developed in a usable form for the subsequent operations. Structural analysis, thermal analyses, and CFD analyses of non-linear and/or dynamic phenomena are becoming increasing more common in product development in order to optimally simulate the product's actual environment and characteristics. The lectures are focused on modelling and selection of analysis type, as well as showing industrial applications. Guest lecturers with deep insights in specific techniques are invited. Each student is expected to solve and submit a modelling and analysis assignment.
