Objectives
MODULE 1: COMPLEMENTI DI SCIENZA DELLE COSTRUZIONI
THE COURSE AIMS AT PROVIDING THE ENGINEERING STUDENTS A DEEPENING OF THE LINEAR ELASTIC CONSTITUTIVE LAW, WHICH INCLUDES, MATERIAL SYMMETRIES OF INTEREST FOR APPLICATIONS: ISOTROPIC, ORTHOTROPIC AND TRANSVERSELY ISOTROPIC MATERIALS.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
THE COURSE DEALS WITH THE STUDY OF THE GENERAL PROPERTIES OF THE ELASTOSTATIC PROBLEM.
FURTHERMORE, THE COURSE ADDRESSES THE STUDY OF THE BUCKLING EQUILIBRIUM PROBLEM OF BEAMS AS WELL AS OF PLANE FRAMES. FINALLY, THE COURSE DEALS WITH THE STUDY OF BASIC ASPECTS OF THE THEORY OF ARCHES AND VAULTS.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
UPON PASSING THE FINAL EXAM, THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO PERFORM A STABILITY ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES AS WELL AS TO APPLY DIFFERENT VARIATIONAL APPROACHES.

AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT
KNOWING THE CORRECT STRUCTURAL MODEL TO BE ADOPTED FOR THE STUDY CASE. TO BE ABLE TO CRITICALLY EVALUATE THE RESULTS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYZES, CHECKING THEIR CORRECTNESS THROUGH ELEMENTARY MODELS.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS
TO KNOW HOW TO WORK IN A GROUP AND HOW TO DISCUSS ABOUT THE PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE TOPICS STUDIED.

ABILITY TO LEARN.
TO KNOW HOW TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN CONTEXTS AND SITUATIONS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PRESENTED AND EXEMPLIFIED DURING THE COURSE.

MODULE 2: CALCOLO A ROTTURA
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS TO ACQUIRE.
THE COURSE AIMS AT PROVIDING THE ENGINEERING STUDENTS A DEEPENING OF THE THEORY OF PLASTICITY.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
TO KNOW THE FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF THE THEORY OF PLASTICITY. TO KNOW HOW TO EVALUATE THE COLLAPSE LOAD OF IDEALLY ELASTOPLASTIC STRUCTURES. KNOWLEDGE AND USE OF THE PLASTIC HINGE MODEL.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
TO KNOW HOW TO EVALUATE THE ULTIMATE STRESS DISTRIBUTION IN THE COMMON CROSS SECTIONS. TO KNOW HOW TO EVALUATE THE FAILURE LOAD AND THE RELATIVE COLLAPSE CONFIGURATIONS OF PLANE STRUCTURES (FRAMES AND ARCHES).

AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT
KNOWING THE CORRECT STRUCTURAL MODEL TO BE ADOPTED FOR THE STUDY CASE. TO BE ABLE TO CRITICALLY EVALUATE THE RESULTS OF STRUCTURAL ANALYZES, CHECKING THEIR CORRECTNESS THROUGH ELEMENTARY MODELS.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS
TO KNOW HOW TO WORK IN A GROUP AND HOW TO DISCUSS ABOUT THE PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE TOPICS STUDIED.

ABILITY TO LEARN.
TO KNOW HOW TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN CONTEXTS AND SITUATIONS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PRESENTED AND EXEMPLIFIED DURING THE COURSE.

MODULE 2: SPERIMENTAZIONE DEI MATERIALI E COLLAUDO
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS TO ACQUIRE.
LEARNING THE FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF EXPERIMENTAL MECHANICS AND THE KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY FOR THE MEASUREMENT AND EXPERIMENTAL CONTROL OF CONSTRUCTION SAFETY BY MEANS OF BOTH DESTRUCTIVE AND NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTS.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
ACQUISITION OF ABILITY TO APPROACH THE PROBLEMS RELATIVE TO THE EXPERIMENTATION, TESTING AND CONTROL OF COMPLEX STRUCTURES.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
ABILITY TO APPLY THE MAIN EXPERIMENTAL METHODOLOGIES FOR THE DETERMINATION OF RESISTANCE AND DEFORMABILITY PARAMETERS OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS, FOR THE PURPOSES OF STATIC TESTING OF STRUCTURES.

AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT
KNOWING HOW TO CRITICALLY EXAMINE THE RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTAL LABORATORY TESTS AND LOAD TESTS CARRIED OUT IN SITU FOR THE PURPOSE OF STATIC CONTROL AND TESTING OF COMPLEX STRUCTURES.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS
KNOWING HOW TO MERGE INTO A TECHNICAL REPORT THE CONCEPT, THE APPROACH, THE ANALYSIS AND THE RESULTS OF AN EXPERIMENTAL TESTS PROGRAM.

ABILITY TO LEARN.
TO KNOW HOW TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN CONTEXTS AND SITUATIONS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PRESENTED AND EXEMPLIFIED DURING THE COURSE.
Prerequisites
THE SUCCESSFUL ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES ABOVE REQUIRES A BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE MECHANICS OF SOLIDS AND STRUCTURES.

Teaching Methods
THE COURSE PROVIDES THEORETICAL LESSONS (8 CFU) AND PRACTICAL ONES AS WELL AS LABORATORY ACTIVITIES (4 CFU). IT IS REQUESTED TO THE STUDENTS TO PREPARE A TECHNICAL REPORT. THE ATTENDANCE AT LESSONS ARE RECOMMENDED EVEN IF IT IS NOT COMPULSORY.


Verification of learning
THE EXAM CONSISTS OF A WRITTEN TEST AND AN ORAL TEST. IN THE WRITTEN TEST THE STUDENT WILL SHOW HIS ABILITY TO
SOLVING EXERCISES APPLYING THE METHODOLOGIES RELATED TO THE VARIATIONAL PRINCIPLES AND THEOREMS OF LIMIT ANALYSIS. THE ORAL EXAMINATION, WHICH DURATION IS APPROXIMATELY ABOUT 60 MINUTES WILL VERIFY THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THE ELASTIC-STATIC PROBLEM, THE NON-LINEAR STABILITY OF FRAMES, THE COLLAPSE OF ELASTO-PLASTIC STRUCTURES AND THE MEASUREMENT AND EXPERIMENTAL CONTROL OF THE SAFETY OF BUILDINGS BY DESTRUCTIVE OR NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING.
THE ORAL EXAMINATION WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TO STUDENTS WHO PASS THE WRITTEN EXAM WITH THE RESULT OF "ADMITTED TO THE ORAL EXAM". THE SCORE OF THE ORAL EXAMINATION DEPENDS ON THE DEGREE OF DEEPENING OF THE STUDENT'S KNOWLEDGE RELATIVE TO THE TOPICS ILLUSTRATED DURING THE COURSE. FOR THE PURPOSES OF EXCELLENCE RESULT, THE QUALITY OF THE PRESENTATION (USE OF AN APPROPRIATE SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE), THE CAPACITY OF TRANSVERSE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT TOPICS OF THE COURSE AND, WHERE POSSIBLE, WITH OTHER DISCIPLINES, WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT.
