5-Day Value Added Course on
“Training Programme on Finite Element Analysis”
Outcome of the Value-Added Course
After completion of this course students will be able to:
1. Interpret the philosophy behind principles, design and modelling considerations in
using finite element analysis.
2. Develop stiffness matrices for spring, truss, beam, plane stress problems and
three dimensional problems using the concept of direct equilibrium and potential
energy methods.
3. Develop the finite element formulations for heat transfer problems.
4. Evaluating the convergence of solutions using finite element analysis and assess
the accuracy of simulated results.
5. Be proficient in the use of commercial finite element software.
6. Create and design engineering structures using finite element methods, taking
into account safe design limits.
