MSE Master of Science in Engineering

The Swiss engineering master's degree


Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie: 

  • 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
    I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati.
  • 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
    I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione 
  • 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
    I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

Mechanics of Elastic Structures (TSM_Mechanic)

In this module, students learn calculation methods for furnishing proof of the load-bearing capacity of structures and are made aware of the limits of these procedures.
The module imparts methods and procedures for calculating and measuring the mechanical behavior of structures and highlights their importance for the development of load-bearing structures.

Requisiti

  • Basic knowledge of structural mechanics: tension/compression, torsion of shafts, deflection and elastic deformation of beams, multiaxial stress states, stress tensor, comparison stress, strength test with static loading and endurance limit
  • Calculation with matrices

Obiettivi di apprendimento

  • In selected fields of engineering mechanics, students acquire the theoretical knowledge to solve problems in product development with regard to product lifecycles.
  • Students know the failure mechanisms of load-bearing structures subject to mechanical load and are familiar with the possibilities and limits for designing and dimensioning structures.
  • Students are familiar with selected extended material laws, e.g. elasto-plastic behavior, anisotropic materials, etc.

Categoria modulo

  • 2D and 3D distortion/stress state, elastic and elasto-plastic stress-strain behavior of isotropic materials, stress-strain behavior of anisotropic materials
  • Yielding criteria (v. Mises, Tresca) and damage criteria for anisotropic materials. Criteria for fatigue failure, rated and local stresses, counting methods for compiling load collectives, linear damage accumulation, plastic and multi-axial hardening, fatigue strength in the low cycle and endurance limit range
