Module code | ECM2109 |
Module lecturers: | Prof Stana Zivanovic |
Module credits: | 15 |
This module builds on Mechanics (ECM1108 ) to further your understanding of mechanical behaviour of structures and its application to engineering design. You will enhance your mathematical analysis skills and develop ability to perform linear elastic analysis of beams and 2D frame structures. You will explore techniques underpinning structural analysis including strain energy, virtual work, and flexibility and stiffness methods. You will also investigate instability and plastic collapse mechanisms of simple structures. You will further practice critical evaluation of theory and/or experimental data.
Prerequisite module: ECM1108 or equivalent
