Computational Mechanics in Transport
- Abstract:
- The project is focused on utilization of modern computational methods for strain and stress analysis in transportation. In the project research is aimed at improving the knowledge of vehicles and their parts, transportation infrastructure, construction materials, etc. Strain and stress analyses of static and dynamic problems are mainly solved using Finite Element Method (FEM) and in this project commercial general purpose FE codes (ANSYS, LS-DYNA) as well as open-source FE codes (Elmer, deal.II, Salome, Impact) are employed. High emphasis is also put on proper interpretation of calculated results a their presentation. In addition to solution of problems using FEM, students will acquire knowledge of various programming or computational languages and applications (Matlab, Octave, Python, etc.) that are commonly used in engineering and scientific field. Besides computational methods, the project is also focused on experimental work support, such as the development of experimental setups using CAD systems. Results of the experiments are commonly compared with the results of numerical simulations. Moreover, students´ work on real-world problems arising from cooperation with reputable companies (AZD, SKODA Transportation, Skoda Auto, etc.) and research institutions (ITAM ASCR, IEAP CTU, etc.).
