Course description
Computational mechanics is a rapidly evolving field that significantly impacts both science and industry across all engineering disciplines. It focuses on solving mechanical problems using numerical approximation methods, which involve discretizing the underlying equations in both space and time. Today, these skills are essential in civil and mechanical engineering, automotive and spacecraft design, biomechanics, and micro-electro-mechanical systems. Nearly all technical fields benefit from the swift advancements in this area. This discipline merges advanced methods from theoretical, applied, and structural mechanics with computer science, software engineering, and applied mathematics. The curriculum includes study subjects such as numerical methods, finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, and structural optimization. Programs like Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Aerospace Engineering integrate these topics to prepare students for the challenges of modern engineering. By mastering computational mechanics, engineers can design more efficient structures, develop innovative technologies, and contribute to advancements in various technical fields. This knowledge is not just theoretical but has practical applications that drive progress in many industries.
