Summary
The subject is focused on theoretical and practical aspects of numerical as well as physical modelling utilization. Attention is paid on basics that are necessary for forming problem definning as well as for the initial and boundary conditions determination used in simulation.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Student will be able to use numerical software based on computer aided design.
Student will be able to formulate basic presumptions that are necessary for simulation creation.
Student will be able to describe the parameters of deformation as well as deformation behaviour of material during plastic deformation.
