Course in The Finite Element Method
Gain expertise in the Finite Element Method for practical engineering applications. Learn to model plate structures, set up thermal and pressure loads with boundary conditions, select suitable steel materials, optimise meshes for convergence, validate simulation results against hand calculations and standards, and produce reliable technical reports for design decisions.

flexible workload of 4 to 360h

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can change chapters and skip content that I don't need.

Mariana FerresPhotography Student
I like the content and the way of presentation and video transcription, which speeds up the process!

Luciana AlvarengaNail Design Student
The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos help a lot in learning.
