| Outline and Purpose of the Course | The goal of this course is to acquire the fundamentals of finite element method and inverse analysis for desigh and maintenance of irrigation structures. | ||
| Course Goals |
- Understanding fundamentals and application of finite element method. - Understanding of inverse analysis. - Practice and implementation of finite element analysis and inverse analysis for irrigation structures. |
||
| Schedule and Contents |
2-3 weeks of classes will be spent on each of the topics covered in this course, including the following: 1) Design and analysis of irrigation structures The methods of designing irrigation structures, as well as the numerical analysis used for the methods, will be outlined. 2) Experimental methods for understanding the mechanisms of irrigation facilities The laboratory experiments related to the design of irrigation facilities and their methods will be outlined. 3) Functional assessment of irrigation structures The functional assessment techniques employed for irrigation facilities and their conservation methods will be outlined. 3) Inverse problems and their types The concept and types of the inverse problem, which is used to interpret observations on the behavior of irrigation structures, will be explained. 3) Techniques used for inverse problem analysis (inverse analysis) Various techniques of inverse analysis will be explained. Their relationship to data assimilation will also be discussed. 5) Examples of inverse analysis related to earth structures and computer-aided construction and maintenance Examples of inverse analysis related to earth structures will be shown. In addition, the relationship between inverse analysis and computer-aided construction and maintenance will be discussed. |
