Course Outcomes:
- Knowledge:
1. Explain the mathematical model of the deformation problem.
2. Recognize the relations between stresses and displacement for solid bodies.
3. Describe the traction, displacement, and mixed boundary conditions for structures.
4. Describe key features and operating principles of the general solution strategies for deformation problems.
- Cognitive Skills:
1. Evaluate the stress-strain relations.
2. Apply mathematical knowledge to solve problems of deformation of structures.
3. Interpret different boundary conditions on the body surface.
4. Request mathematical tests in certain selected conditions studied in the course.
- Interpersonal skills and responsibilities:
The student will improve his logical thinking and learn the techniques of the proof of laws. As a result he will be equipped with the methods of solved exercises.
- Analysis and communication:
The student may apply the techniques learn in this course to apply the laws he studied in examples in his daily life.
