Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives supported by learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the fundamentals of the general theory of elasticity, methods for solving elasticity and strength problems of bodies with special geometries, principles of dimensioning mechanical components under cyclic loading, fundamentals of fracture mechanics, and methods of dynamic stress and strain analysis of one-dimensional linear continua.
Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, the student is able to: mathematically describe three-dimensional states of stress and strain, define limit states, and formulate strength conditions, solve strength and deformation problems of bodies with special geometries, design mechanical components subjected to cyclic loading, work with fundamental concepts of fracture mechanics, apply modern matrix methods in the analysis of modal and spectral properties of continua, develop mathematical models for dynamic stress and strain analysis of one-dimensional continua.

Podmínky testu
The basis for the student's assessment (A 100–90, B 89.99 – 84, C 83.99 – 77, D 76.99 – 73, E 72.99 – 70, FX 69.99 – 30, F 29.99 – 0) are the points for the Seminar Paper (30 points) and the Written Exam score (70 points). A-excellent performance with only minor formal errors, B-above average performance, but with certain errors, C-generally good performance with a number of significant errors, D-acceptable performance, but with significant shortcomings, E-performance meets the minimum requirements, F-a significant a
