MACHINE DESIGN – II (9 cfu)
Objectives and organization
This course is aimed at delivering the main concepts of finite elements and of structural dynamics in the design of engines, machines and their mechanical components. The familiarization with modeling issues is also promoted, together with the implementation of the above concepts to practical cases.
Class exercises will be organized for practising with both self-written computer programs as well as commercial f.e. codes.
