Aim: To acqaint the students with the commonest CAE methods, so that they will be able to use these rationally, i.e. they will be aware of the strong points as well as the weaknesses of the methods. They also learn how to modify the programmes and write subroutines. |
Contents: Construction of matrices for field problems in strength of materials, heat transmission and fluid flow. Different element types and their properties, particularly elasticity elements. Algorithms suitable for computerized solutions of equtions and Eigen values. Computer graphics. The capabilities of modern element programmes and their potentials.
The projects can cover a wide range, as for example:
1. Devise a programme to describe the dynamic behaviour of a vibration
conveyor actuated by two vibrators whose position and vibrational direction may be varied at will.
2. Devise a programme to determine modal values and natural frequencies for a bilge pump for a tank ship. The pump is submerged in oil and the driving axle from time to time grazes the inside of the delivery tube. |
