Numerical methods EN-B2S31135

The student knows and uses the finite element method for static analysis of each type of structure. Solves its own problems of buckling and dynamics. Applies numerical algorithms to analyze nonlinear problems and equations of motion. He can work on the development of conceptual discretization methods.

Lecture - assessment is carried out in the form of an open test in two parts. The first part of the lecture pass is written in the 4th lecture, it consists of 5 questions assessed on a scale of 0-1 points. The second part of the lecture pass is carried out in the 7th lecture in the form of an open test consisting of 5 questions assessed on a 0-1 scale. The final grade is obtained after adding up the total number of points, which translate into the final grade "
9.5-10 points - very good grade,
8.5-9 points db + rating,
7.5-8 points db rating,
6.5-7 points dst + assessment,
6points dst. with the proviso that in the event of failure to meet any of the learning outcomes, the final grade is negative.

Specialist workshop - Implementation of 7 individual studies and their defense. There will be 11 points from defense. which translates into a final grade according to the following scoring:

10.5-11 points very good,
9.5-10 points db + rating,
8.5-9 points db rating,
7.5-8 points dst + assessment,
6.0-7 points dst.
For untimely completion of tasks or for their incorrect execution, you lose 0.5 points each.
