Finite Element Analysis
An introduction to the theory, programming and application of the finite element method that is used to solve problems in engineering analysis and design. Modeling, analysis, and design using the FEA software SolidWorks. The objective of the course is to teach the fundamentals of the finite element method with emphasis on the underlying theory, assumption, and modeling issues as well as providing hands-on experience using finite element software to model, analyze, and design systems.
