Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
1. Understanding the fundamentals of material modelling within the framework of continuum mechanics
2. Comprehending physical and mathematical description of key features of common material behaviour in civil engineering related to their thermo-mechanical response
3. Understanding the material models within the computational tools commonly used in civil engineering with respect to thermo-mechanical behaviour
4. Analysing critically and comprehensively applied material models
