CEME 3001 - Computer Analysis of Structures and Structural Dynamics

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2022

The objective of this course is to make students aware of the concepts used in 1) computer aided analysis of 最新糖心Vlog and 2) dynamic analysis of 最新糖心Vlog. Computer aided analysis topics include: basic theory and formulation of matrix method of analysis based on stiffness approach; and application of these theories to linear analysis of 2D/3D trusses, frames and grillage. Students will use commercial software as well as develop their own computer program to analyse different 最新糖心Vlog. Dynamic analysis the topics include: basic theories of free and forced vibration of 最新糖心Vlog idealised as single and multiple degree-of-freedom problems with and without consideration of damping; application of these theories to dynamic analysis of different 最新糖心Vlog; and response spectra.

  • Learning Outcomes
    Course Learning Outcomes
    1. Discuss the fundamental concepts and theoretical (mathematical) formulations of Matrix Method for analyses of skeletal 最新糖心Vlog such as beams, 2D plane and 3D space trusses, 2D plane and 3D space frames, and grillage frames under static loads; Also, introduction to structural dynamics to analyse these 最新糖心Vlog under dynamic loads.  

    2. Develop competence in applying these principles in solving these structural problems manually (hand calculations) as well as using computer programs;

    3. Demonstrated ability in developing your own computer programs using MATLAB or FORTRAN for analysing such 最新糖心Vlog of any shape, size, and complexity;

    4. Develop competence in using commercially available computer software used in 最新糖心Vlogn industry (e.g. Strand7) for analysing different types of skeletal 最新糖心Vlog;

    5. Demonstrated ability in problem identification, use relevant formulations, and solution of the structural problems;

    6. Demonstrated ability to manage tasks related to home work-assignments within the allocated time to meet submission deadlines;

  • Learning & Teaching Activities
    Learning & Teaching Modes
    The course will be delivered in the format of lectures throug pre-recorded videos and interactive sessions through face-to face (workshops), and zoom/hybrid (consultation sessions) modes for problem-solving related assignments, group project, and preparation of final and mid-semester examinations. The consultation sessions will provide help students individually or in small groups for homework assignments, group project, general understanding of theories and solving problems. Teaching assistants will also be available for consultations.

    Workload

    The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

    The information provides a rough guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

    In addition to watching recorded lecture videos covering 6 topics in first 8 weeks (a topic can take 4 to 8 hours allocated for 1 to 2 weeks), students are expected to spend additional hours (can vary person to person) for revising lecture materials, practice examples from the lecture slides, solving homework assignment problems (6 assignments based on 6 topics), and preparation of fianal and mid-semester examinations. In last 4 to 5 weeks, students are expected to spend hours for the group project.
    Learning Activities Summary

    Specific Course Requirements
    You have to achieve 40% in the final examination to pass this course.
  • Assessment

    The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

    1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
    2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
