Overview
On this course, you’ll develop the ability to apply engineering concepts and mathematical knowledge to modelling structural systems, and better understand the behaviour and performance of more complex structural systems.
Outcomes
By the end of this Advanced Structural Analysis course at Nottingham Trent University, you’ll be able to:
- integrate your knowledge of mathematics, science, IT, design and engineering practice to solve a range of (sometimes complex) problems
- assess the capabilities and limitations of computer-based methods for solving problems
- generate innovative design for systems, components or processes to fulfil new needs
- evaluate new and emerging technologies.
Programme Structure
This course will include:- kinematic and static indeterminacy of framed structures
- linear elastic behaviour
- matrix structural analysis
- plastic analysis
- critical loads and buckling modes
- the calculation of natural frequencies and their response to harmonic and transient loads
- the elastic solution of plates using analytical and numerical methods
- the plastic solution of plates using yield line theory
