END-3604 Structural Analysis in Engineering - 5 ECTS
Course content
The course will provide an introduction to some important topics in analysis of some key structural elements. The beam equation, advanced stability analysis of beam-columns and Rigid frames. Part 1 covers beams and buckling. Part 2 gives the students an introduction to vibration analysis of structural elements.
Part 1:
- Euler beam equation
- Euler buckling
- Simple frames
- Buckling of beam-columns
- Euler-Lagragne method for columns
- Imperfect columns
- Continuous columns
Part 2:
-Vibration of a system with a single degree of freedom
- Undamped free vibration (Undamped and damped)
- Rayleigh Method
- Rotational freedom
- Forced vibration (Damped and undamped )
-Vibration isolation
-Vibration in continuous systems
- Lateral vibration of a cable
- Longitude vibration of a bar.
- Lateral vibration in an Euler beam
