LEARNING OUTCOMES
Student is able to represent the quantities and operators of continuum mechanics in different coordinate systems, knows the assumptions of the beam and plate models and derivation of the beam and plate equations using the principle of virtual work, and is able to write the equations in different coordinate system in flat and curved geometry and solve for the displacements in simple cases.
