After successful completion of the course, students are able to solve computational exercises that require an understanding of the fundamental concepts of continuum mechanics and strength of materials. 

Euqilibrium on three-dimensional continuum, Stress tensor, strength criteria, strain tensor, principal of virtual power, work/energy/elasticity, basics of beam theory, loss of stability

online lectures; videos with an introduction to the lectures topics; presentation of full-text lecture notes with formulae and numerical exercises; online interactive questioning; smaller groups are also allowed at the institute for questions (only with advanced notification)

A preliminary introduction with explanations on the organisation of the UE and VO is scheduled online for Wednesday, 6th October 2021, 14:15. A link for the Webmeeting will be provided in time on this page and will also be send via e-mail. More information on the schedule can be found in the calender, available in the download area.

READMISSION PRESENCE GROUP RULE FROM MECHANICS 2: In a first iteration the presence groups (Präsenzgruppen) of Mechanics 2 will be taken!

Two online-exams. In total, at least 50% of the points are required for passing.

Participation in the substitute exam is ONLY possible when missing one of previous two regular exams.

Registration is required for participation in the written exams as well as for access to the TUWEL-course. A certificate will be issued after participation in at least one exam.

Documents will be available online via TUWEL. For access to the TUWEL-course a registration to this exercise is required.

Knowledge from lectures Mathematics 1 and 2, as well as Building Mechanics and Mechanics 1 aviseable.
