Modelling and Simulation in Structural Mechanics

After successfully participating in the module, the students are able to understands complex approaches of Structural Dynamics, to apply them to given tasks and to present them in comprehensible way. The module provides a wide overview of advanced topics in Structural Dynamics and of their computer-aided implementation to the students. The students can classify different academically and practically relevant tasks and can identify appropriate solution strategies.

- Modal approaches for damped and undamped systems - Harmonic and transient analysis of dynamic systems - Root point excitation at non classically damped systems - Methods for computer-aided description of wave propagation and damping - Coupled problems (Soil-Structure-Interaction, Fluid-Structure-Interaction) - Model Order Reduction
