About

This Engineering Stress Analysis course offered by Cranfield University brings together theoretical and computational stress analysis through Finite Element simulations, allowing delegates to appreciate how the two disciplines interact in practice and what their strengths and limitations are.

Overview

What you will learn

On successful completion of this Engineering Stress Analysis course offered by Cranfield University you will be able to:

  • Develop a strong foundation on stress analysis and demonstrate the ability to analyse a range of structural problems,
  • Explain the fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis, be able to evaluate methodologies applied to the analysis of structural members (beams, plates, shells, struts), and critically evaluate the applicability and limitations of the methods and the ability to make use of original thought and judgement when approaching structural analysis,
  • Provide an in-depth explanation of current practice through case studies of engineering problems,
  • Use the most widely applied commercial finite element software package (ABAQUS) and some of its advanced functionalities,
  • Evaluate the importance of mesh sensitivity in finite element simulations.
