Students during lectures become familiar with the theoretical foundations of the finite element method, with the essence of numerical computational modelling and with fundamental practical knowledge, which are applied to typical problems of solid mechanics. Practical tasks are divided by 1D, 2D, and 3D level of geometry. Dominantly, the subject is focused on linear static structural analysis, but also an introduction to dynamic analyses and analyses of heat conduction will be presented. The above will be practiced in the ANSYS Workbench computing software. The necessary knowledge of the subject is: 1) ability to work with ANSYS Workbench software, 2) understanding of the correct level of the computational model (inclusion of essential variables), 3) analysis/assessment/verification of the obtained results, 4) theoretical basement of FEM.
