Courses

Statics I

Developing an understanding for static systems. Solution of isostatic systems in terms of reaction forces and internal forces (NVM diagrams)

Nonlinear analysis of structures

This course deals with the nonlinear modelling and analysis of structures when subjected to monotonic, cyclic, and dynamic loadings, focusing in particular on the seismic response of structures. It introduces solution methods for nonlinear static and dynamic problems.

Introduction to research skills (for GC)

The course prepares students for carrying out research-based Master projects. It teaches basics of scientific writing and presenting as well as concepts and tools that are useful over the course of a research project.

Seismic engineering

This course deals with the main aspects of seismic design of buildings and bridges. It covers different structural design and evaluation philosophies for new and existing reinforced concrete and masonry structures.
