Course Description This course deals with stability problems in structural forms and systems.  Special consideration for stability during design of structural elements are highlighted. The course also covers the use of computer applications in the determination of the capacity and response of structures considering their structural stability. Objectives solve structural systems considering effects of their...Read More

Rationale Mechanical engineers should have the ability to mathematically model mechanical systems in order to determine their behavior when subjected to real time situations. In this way by the time the physical system is built it has already been tested mathematically. This course has as its prerequisite Dynamic systems engineering. It takes a system as...Read More
