| Learning Outcomes |
At the end of this course, the students;
- Formulate and solve elasticity boundary value problems by applying stress-strain relations, equilibrium equations, and compatibility conditions,
- Apply energy principles and variational methods to derive and approximate solutions in elasticity,
- Analyze thin plate behavior (bending, buckling, vibration) using classical and shear-deformable plate theories,
- Assess the limitations and applicability of linear, anisotropic, thermoelastic, and poroelastic models in engineering practice,
- Communicate technical results effectively, linking theoretical derivations to engineering and scientific applications.
