Description
Hello there, and welcome to the course: Programming the finite element method using C#. This course is a comprehensive online course that will teach you everything you need to know about programming the finite element analysis using c#, and apply those concepts on 3D beam structures.I am assuming in the process that you have some knowledge in the FEM as well as some knowledge about programming in General, and c# in particular. You do not need to be a "pro" in those, but some base knowledge should suffice and is highly recommended.This course is perfect for both beginners and advanced learners. I will teach you everything I know about programming the finite element method, and guide you with engaging content, hands-on exercises. The course covers everything from the inception of the software solution to the debugging sessions.Also worth mentioning, is that your instructor has a PhD in structural engineering and is currently developing his own software to reach market maturity. I will provide you access to the beta test of that program, so that you can see the future possibilities that you can build upon using the basics discussed here. Thus, I am teaching you out of experience.This course is consisted of the following Sections:Section 1 - Program StructureIn this section, the main goals of the course as well as the program structure are laid out and implemented.Section 2 - Structural ObjectsThe structural elements that are inputted by the user are defined, and their roles are explained.Section 3 - Load ObjectsThe different load types (nodal, linear concentrated and linear distributed) are defined and their roles explained.Section 4 - Generation of FEM ModelThe meshing of the structural model into a working FEM model is performed here. Also, FEM objects such as nodes, beams, springs, releases and supports are defined and explained.Section 5 - FEM CalculationsThe generation of the Load Vector, Stiffness Matrix and Boundary Condition Matrix is done here. Also, the solution of the main FEM equation F = kx is done and results are stored.Section 6 - Post ProcessingThe results obtained from Section 5 are used to generate internal force diagrams (normal, shear, bending and torsional).Section 7 - Bench marking and DebuggingWe go through the process of bench marking and bug elimination and learn a couple of lessons from this experience. Also, an outlook is given.Generally,Throughout the course, you'll learn how to perform pre-processing, inputting the structural model, meshing and preparing the FEM model, performing the analysis, and doing debugging. You'll also learn how to perform post-processing to analyze your results and gain valuable insights into your structures.But that's not all. In addition to the video lectures, I'll provide you with the source code of the program in most of the steps as well as any teaching material used during presentation sessions. This way you can learn by practice, and experiment with your own code and compare with mine.By the end of the course, you'll have the skills and knowledge you need to program the finite element method in C# and apply it to your own projects. You'll be able to analyze structures with greater accuracy and efficiency, and gain a competitive edge in your field. Also, you would have the knowledge to go and try develop a tailored software for either your commercial interests or research interest, or even both.So don't wait any longer. Enroll in Programming the Finite Element Method in C# today, and take the first step toward to achieve this goal.Thank you very much, and I will see you, in my course.
