Finite Element Method Exercises for use in Undergraduate Engineering Programs

工程-机械（56）本CCLI第一阶段探索性项目使用商业软件为本科课程开发工程问题的有限元（FE）教程练习。它为工程本科学生提供有限元理论的基本知识和应用商业有限元软件解决典型工程问题的能力。该项目在6个本科工程领域开发了11个教程：结构分析、振动分析、电磁分析、生物识别建模、流体动力学和稳态传热分析。本课题旨在提高工科本科学生对复杂工程问题建模和分析的有限元方法的认识。教师和学生正在评估四所不同的高等教育机构的辅导效果。这些教程正在通过互联网向全国其他学院和大学分发。商业软件公司也通过其出版合作伙伴和其他营销渠道传播这些教程。

Engineering - Mechanical (56)This CCLI Phase 1, Exploratory Project is developing finite element (FE) tutorial exercises of engineering problems for undergraduate courses using commercial software. It is providing undergraduate engineering students with basic knowledge in FE theory and an ability to apply commercial finite element software to typical engineering problems. The project is developing eleven tutorials in six undergraduate engineering areas: structural analysis, vibration analysis, electromagnetic analysis, biometric modeling, fluid dynamics, and steady state heat transfer analysis. This project is advancing the knowledge of teaching undergraduate engineering students the FE method for modeling and analyzing complex engineering problems. Faculty and students are assessing tutorial effectiveness at four different higher educational institutions. These tutorials are being distributed nationally to other colleges and universities via the Internet. Commercial software firms are also disseminating these tutorials through their publishing partners and other marketing outlets.
