module
Learning objectives
Knowledge
- Have knowledge on how to establish a geometrical specification
of a product via computer based models using Computer Aided Design
and Technical Drawings
- Have knowledge on how the Finite Element Method can be applied
to obtain approximate solutions to physical problems governed by
partial differential equations
- Have knowledge about the applications, assumptions, and
limitations of the Finite Element Method
- Have knowledge about the compromise between accuracy and
simulation time
- Have knowledge about the numerical steps taken in a finite
element analysis in order to obtain results of deformation
(strains) and stresses.
Skills
- Can establish a three dimensional parametric model of a
structure or component using a commercial computer software
program
- Can produce and interpret a technical drawing of a product
(i.e. a structure or component)
- Can perform a linear static stress analysis using a commercial
finite element program
- Can interpret and report results of simple finite element
analyses
- Can demonstrate a basic understanding of concepts and
applications of finite element analysis from a sports science view
point
Competences

an analysis or design process in sports science and
engineering
- Can conduct a qualified dialogue with analysis specialists on
numerical analysis of sports products
