Automation in Structural Analysis & Design
What is a Structure?
A structure is anything that you see around you from buildings to your own body. Everything has a structure, when we say structure we are referring to a system with connected parts that supports a load. There are two key distinctions when referring to a structure:
They must be capable of carrying the loads without collapsing.
They must support the various parts of the external load in the correct relative position.
When dealing with structure analysis we will always see simple and complex structures. We will be focusing on the structural efficiency and the economic efficiency of a design. To take this one step further, we will be adhering to matrix methods, but we will be using a simple computation tool to understand how the structure responds.
This course will focus on the analyses and design of structures and writing automation scripts for them, therefore it is important to first understand the definition of a structure.
The course structure is focused on structural analysis and design. It is a fundamental concept for any Mechanical or Civil Engineer. By the end of this course, you will have learned how to analyze complex space frame structures in simple methods, how to create simulations of matrix methods using the post-processing features of MATLAB, and Parametric Design Optimization.
This is not only to refresh your skills in engineering, but also to prepare you for future projects. Once a student completes this course, they can, for example, look at a structure and understand how it will react to different loads acting on it.
You will also gain valuable knowledge over concepts, as well as tools such as::
SAP 2000, REVIT, Abaqus - for Civil Engineers
Solidworks, Ansys, Cosmol - for Mechanical Engineers.
Throughout this course, we will be using different computation tools to help us analyze structures. This is to prepare you for the coursework you will receive in higher education. You will also gain strong fundamentals for GATE and IES examinations.
