CIVE 525Introduction to Finite Flement Methods

No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1975–76 to 1976–77 (before that, 1969–70 used the number for Failure in Metal Assemblies); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
The concept and theoretical basis of the finite element method are presented as a Sogical extension to solid body stress analysis of the matrix methods applied to structural frames. Students will analyze representative two-and three-dimensional problems using available programmes.
As printed in the 1975–76 to 1976–77 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

Another title: Failure in Metal Assemblies, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
The behaviour of components and assemblies under load, and the limits of serviceability. Yield and ultimate strength: creep, brittle fracture, fatigue, elastic buckling and post-buckling strength. Plastic and limit design. Safety and efficiency.
