Short Description
The lecture
deals with constitutive models that are relevant for design and
calculation of structures. These include anisotropic linear elasticity,
linear viscoelasticity, plasticity, viscoplasticity. Homogenization
theories and laminate theory are presented. Theoretical models are
complemented by examples of engineering applications and experiments.
Course Format/Time
2 hours lecture (Fri 8-10) and 1 hour discussion/problem section
(Wed 12-13 in HG E33.3).
First lecture: September 23d 2011
(Fri).
First discussion section: September
28th 2011 (Wed).
Testat Condition
Completion of 70% of homework assignments
Primary Goal
Basic theories for solving continuum mechanics
problems of engineering applications, with particular attention to
material models.
