5. Objectives or Learning Outcomes
Course learning outcomes
Description
Students use computer programs that simulate the mechanical behavior of materials and structures in static and dynamic regimes.
Students understand the behavior of materials, structural elements and structures through constitutive models. They apply these models to specific cases and use them to predict mechanical phenomena.
Additional outcomes
Description
Measure the mechanical properties of construction materials in Civil engineering
