| EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS TO BE ACQUIRED. ACQUIRE THE THEORETICAL FOUNDAMENTALS OF THE ANALYSIS OF THE MAIN STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS IN TECHNICAL PRACTICE. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS. TO EXPAND THE KNOWLEDGE ALREADY ACQUIRED WITH REGARD TO BEAM SYSTEMS FOR A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOUR OF STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS. ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE IN RELATION TO THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD. ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING. ACQUIRE A METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH FOR: THE RESOLUTION OF STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS WITH THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD. AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT. TO DEVELOP A CRITICAL SENSE AIMED AT IDENTIFYING THE MOST SUITABLE FEATURES OF A FEM MODEL IN RELATION TO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MATERIALS, THE GEOMETRY AND THE TYPE OF PROBLEM EXAMINED. COMMUNICATION SKILLS. REFINEMENT OF TECHNICAL LANGUAGE. ABILITY TO LEARN. ABILITY TO LEARN FURTHER STRATEGIES FOR MODELING BEHIND THOSE PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE. ABILITY TO USE FINITE ELEMENT SOFTWARE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PROPOSED. |
