Course content
Complicated problems of linear static, analyses with geometric and material nonlinearities, dynamic analysis, thermal and CFD analysis, modeling of composite materials, and advanced structural analyses. Content of the exercise: 1. Analysis with geometric nonlinearities (contact analysis) 2. Modal analyses (including contact and prestressed bolts) 3. Structural optimization (topology and geometric optimization) 4. Non-stationary temperature analysis (including transfer of results to stress-strain analysis) 5. Material nonlinearities 6. Non-stationary flow analyzes (CFD analysis) 7. Analysis of composite materials (orthotropic materials) 8. Mechanisms - transfer of loads to static analysis (flexible body) 9. Dynamic simulation (body fall - impact) 10. Reserve and repetition (preparation for the final test)

The student is able to make independent and responsible decisions based on a framework assignment in the context of only partially known variables.
The student is able to acquire additional professional knowledge by independent study of theoretical knowledge.
The student is able to understand professional terminology in English.
The student is able to have theoretical knowledge of computational simulations using the finite element method (FEM) for linear and non-linear analyzes.
Skills
The student is able to independently use his knowledge in the field of FEM analyzes when solving practical problems in the field of designing machines and equipment.
The student is able to build a correct numerical model for simulations, establish the boundary conditions for solving the problem and explain the obtained results.
