| additional remarks | The focus of this course is on structural elements, design methods and materials of lightweight structures. The mathematical theories of statics and dynamics of line elements (bars, beams) and surface elements (discs, plates) are presented and analytical solutions of the underlying differential equations for simple problems are derived. The concept of strength of metallic materials is reviewed and extended by the influence of cyclic loading. Stability is treated by studying buckling of slender beams and buckling of plates and thin-walled structures. Another focus of this course will be vibrations that are of particular importance in lightweight structures due to the susceptibility to vibration of many slender and thin-walled structures (wings, rotor blades). On the basis of practical applications, for example from the aerospace industry, automotive engineering, wind industry and sport devices, the various requirements on lightweight structures will be highlighted and the different views on lightweight design (material, shape and system perspective) will be discussed. Furthermore, the application of the presented design and calculation methods is illustrated. |
