Learning goals / Competences
After successfully completing the module the students:
- can identify the elements of the numeric models for membranes and shells and explain their mathematic-physical background
- are able to derive numerical discretization methods from these
- can extend the formulations discussed for membranes and shells to other constitutive laws and implement them into existing software codes
- are able to assess the accuracy of the results of such codes
Content
The module includes the following topics:
- Kinetics of membranes under large deformations
- Constitutive laws for membranes
- Membrane equilibrium in strong form and weak form
- Summary of isogeometric finite element methods
- Numerical discretization methods for membranes
- Extension to shell theories
