Finite Element Method and Computational Structural Dynamics

Prof. Manish Shrikhande · IIT Roorkee

About

Easy availability of computing power has made the computer aided engineering accessible to a wider section of the engineering workforce. To harness the potential of available computational resources, one needs to harmonize the twin aspects of theory and practice. While most of the graduate courses teach finite element method, its application to a range of problems using software tools is generally left out. The objective of this course is to approach the finite element theory from a perspective of effective computer implementation with an extensive set of tutorial problems based on public domain software tools.

Intended audience: Post graduate students in Civil / Structural / Geotechnical / Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering and Mathematics

Prerequisites: Basic course in Calculus
