Description
Students pursuing third or fourth year BE/BTech programs in mechanical, aerospace, automotive, and civil engineering are targeted for this course. Based on a level of student knowledge, the FEA course is designed. Practical explanations will be given for the principles of engineering mechanics, strength of materials, machine design, and heat transport. FEA tools (ANSYS) will be used to solve problems.
The course is split up into ten 40-hour periods, with a well-balanced preparation for each class that uses a FEA approach to encompass theory and its applications. Every session consists of the three phases listed below:
Step 1: Theoretical approach: Students will use manual calculations to resolve the problem.
Step 2: FEA method: Students will use the FEA technique to solve the same problem and compare the results obtained.
Step 3: Industrial applications: Using the knowledge gained from steps 1 and 2, students will tackle industrial problems in real time.
