ME 460 - Finite ElementMethods 3

Institution:

Milwaukee School of Engineering

Subject:

Description:

This course serves as an introduction to finite element analysis (FEA) for structural problems. In the lecture portion of the course, finite element equations are developed for several element types fromequilibriumand energy approaches and used to solve simple problems. In the laboratory portion, students use a commercial, general-purpose finite element computer programto solvemore complex problems and learn several guidelines for use of FEA in practice. A project introduces the use of FEA in the iterative design process. (prereq:ME-309)
