Seminar on Mechanics of Functional Solids and Structures

Numbering Code G-ENG36 7V413 SJ71 Year/Term 2022 ・ Second semester
Number of Credits 2 Course Type Seminar
Target Year Target Student
Language Japanese Day/Period Wed.4
Instructor name BIWA SHIROU (Graduate School of Engineering Professor)
Outline and Purpose of the Course This Seminar is arranged to review advanced topics related to materials and structural systems involved in aeronautics and astronautics, as well as to nurture the presentation and discussion skills. Specific topics include the numerical methods for dynamic behavior of thin-walled structures and composite/functional materials, analysis of elastodynamic functional structures, and advanced experimental techniques for structural health monitoring.
Course Goals The goal is to nurture the skills to survey and discuss advanced topics in the mechanics of functional materials and structures as well as structural health monitoring, and to utilize them in carrying out the research project.
Schedule and Contents Weeks 1-3: Subject setting. Literature survey is to be carried out for advanced topics in the mechanics of functional materials and structures as well as structural health monitoring.
Weeks 4-14: Presentation and discussion. The results of literature survey are presented and discussed with the critical evaluations for them.
Week 15: Finalization. Literature survey is summarized.
Evaluation Methods and Policy Grading is based on the literature survey, presentation, discussion and the final report.
Course Requirements Enrolling students are expected to have the fundamental knowledge of solid mechanics and to be willing to work on advanced topics in the mechanics of solids/structures.
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Enrolling students are expected to carry out the literature survey and to prepare the presentation.
Textbooks Textbooks/References No textbooks are assigned.
References, etc. References are introduced when necessary.
