Covers the principles and formulations of the direct stiffness method and its transition to the finite element method with the computational modelling and analysis of framed structures in 2D plane and 3D space. The dynamic analysis and the introduction to the nonlinear structural problems are provided. Familiarity with the modern computing and programming environments is increased to address the needs in the structural engineering and mechanics area. Computer programming is applied to the solution of problems in structural analysis. Same as CVEN 5525.
