Multiscale Analysis of Engineering Materials (SoSe, DE/EN)

Beschreibung:
Die Studierenden lernen experimentelle and analytische Methoden für die Charakterisierung von Baustoffen auf verschiedenen Ebenen kennen. Zunächst definieren und beschreiben die Studierenden die Mehrphasigkeit und Mehrskaligkeit ausgewählter Baustoffe. In Praktikumsversuchen, die unter fachlicher Anleitung durchgeführt werden, untersuchen sie die mikromechanischen Eigenschaften von ausgewählten Baustoffen und lernen dabei zum Beispiel die Methode der Nanoindentation und die dynamisch-mechanische Analyse kennen. Anschließend erfahren die Studierenden, wie diese experimentellen Daten in analytischen Ansätzen für die computer-basierte Abbildung der mechanischen Eigenschaften verwendet werden. Die Studierenden erlernen die Implementierung einfacher semi-analytischer Mehrskalenmodelle in MATLAB. Zudem lernen sie die thermodynamische Modellierung mittels GEMS kennen.  Am Ende der Veranstaltung sind die Studierenden in der Lage, elastische Eigenschaften von Zementsteinen vorherzusagen.

Description:
The students learn experimental and analytical methods to characterize building materials at different levels. The students start to define and describe the multiphase and multiscale nature of selected building materials. The students then conduct selected micromechanical experiments in practical tests under expert guidance and learn, for example, about the method of nanoindentation and dynamic-mechanical analysis. Students then learn how these experimental data are used in analytical approaches for computer-based modelling of mechanical properties. Students learn how to implement simple semi-analytical multiscale models in MATLAB. They also learn about thermodynamic modelling using GEMS.  At the end of the course, students will be able to predict the elastic properties of hardened cement pastes.

Introduction to Optimization (SoSe, EN)

Description:

In engineering science, we are often faced with problems having potential for optimization. We learn how to formulate this in mathematical terms, and we will study techniques how to improve the situations, generally by involving numerical models. We will discuss classical optimization problems in the field of linear and nonlinear optimization, e.g. optimization of the use of resources, routing problems, calibration problems and structural optimization. In particular in structural optimization we learn techniques like dimensioning, shape and topology optimization. Optimized structures are discussed also in the context of additive manufacturing techniques.

Course Contents:
Definitions, Classification of Optimization Problems, Linear Problems, Simplex Method, Nonlinear Problems: Constrained and unconstrained continuous problems, descent methods and variants. (Robust) Structural Optimization (including Shape and Topology Optimization)

Course Contents:
Optimization in Applications is generally a project assigned to the students including own programming and modelling. E.g. innovative optimization strategies are to be implemented in Matlab, Python or similar. Alternatively, engineering models could be subjected to optimization software.

Stochastic Simulation Techniques and Structural Reliability (SoSe, EN)

Description:

Soils, rocks and materials like concrete are in the natural state among the most variable of all engineering materials. Engineers need to deal with this variability and make decisions in situations of little data, i.e. under high uncertainties. The course aims in providing the students with techniques state of the art in risk assessment (structural reliability) and stochastic simulation.

The course topics comprise
- (a very brief review) of probability theory
- discrete and continuous random processes and fields
- estimation of statistical parameters
- stochastic simulation techniques (Monte Carlo Samplings)
- reliability-based design
- sensitivity analysis
- structural safety
- Risk assessment and stochastic modelling in practice
