Engineering Sciences 71 - Structural Analysis

Institution:

Dartmouth College

Subject:

Description:

09S, 10S: 9 An introduction to the behavior of structural systems (including examples of buildings, space structures, and mechanical systems), with an emphasis on modeling and approximating behavior. Classical and computational analysis methods for structural load flow through basic three-dimensional structures; methods of approximating the response of planar structures; methods of determining deformations in planar, statically determinate structure; actions and deformations in statically indeterminate structures, using both flexibility/compatibility methods and stiffness/equilibrium methods (including an introduction to matrix methods). A structural system of choice will be redesigned to improve performance. Prerequisites: Engineering Sciences 33. Dist: TAS. May.
