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.

- Knowledge of numerical methods
- Basic knowledge of simulation methods such as FEM
Obiettivi di apprendimento
After completing this module, students will be able
- to apply in-depth knowledge of the theory of the finite element method in practice;
- to approach simulation tasks systematically;
- to exploit the possibilities of numerical simulations for structural-mechanical problems in product development, but also to know their limits;
- to verify simulation results and to validate simulation models;
- to assess the importance of nonlinear effects and to consider them in nonlinear simulations;
- to set up and carry out dynamic simulations.
