Training objectives
- The object of the course is to analyse complex mechanical design problems and numerically solve linear and non-linear problems also by means of additive manufactoring.
Prerequisites
- Stuctural integrity
Course programme
- 1) The fundamental concepts of continuum mechanics necessary for studying the mechanical behaviour of solids; fundamental concepts of stress and strain; methods for stress and strain evaluation;
2) tensile curve; elementary plasticity; autofrettage; low cycle fatigue; design of a Conrads; design of a solution of linear and non-linear equations
3)case studies, topological optimisation, additive manufactoring
4)computer lab (numerical solution of linear and non-linear equations by means of commercial software; use of worksheets made by students) Didactic methods
- The course is organized as follows:
lectures on all topics of the course and
classroom exercises on previously treated arguments.
Furthermore, during the course will be made a design of a power transmission. The final report will be request at the oral session. Learning assessment procedures
- The exam is divided into two parts: activities carried out in the computer lab and oral.
The written examination includes exercises of arguments considered during the course.
In the oral session it will be evaluated the ability of student to link and compare different aspects considered during the course.
If the oral examination is sufficient, the final score will take into account the previous score and of the activities carried out in the computer lab. Reference texts
- Mainly class notes and photocopies available at the copy center. Furhter information it will be found in:
