Om kursen
The course provides an advanced introduction to the theoretical and numerical foundations for the analysis of materials and structures using the finite element method (FEM). Students are introduced to fundamental tensor algebra as well as various strain and stress measures used to describe deformation and loading in materials. The course covers both linear and nonlinear formulations of deformation, with particular emphasis on constitutive models for hyperelastic and elastoplastic materials. The finite element method is presented as a central tool for formulating and solving boundary value problems involving both small and large deformations.
In addition to the theoretical foundations, the course addresses practical aspects of numerical implementation, including the formulation of element equations, boundary conditions, and solution algorithms for nonlinear problems. The course thus provides both a theoretical understanding and practical insight into how modern finite element software is developed and applied in research and engineering practice.

Kursvärdering
Malmö University provides students who participate in, or who have completed a course, with the opportunity to express their opinions and describe their experiences of the course by completing a course evaluation administered by the University. The University will compile and summarise the results of course evaluations. The University will also inform participants of the results and any decisions relating to measures taken in response to the course evaluations. The results will be made available to the students (HF 1:14).
