Course Objective

In this course, during the creation of the mathematical models, as well as simple beam theories, the bending and the shear effects are taken into account by the theories will be investigated and the basic knowledge will be presented about the effects of these theories on the static and dynamic stability, vibration problems. In addition, the theoretical knowledge of the students will be improved by presenting research studies related with the analysis methods of the stability and vibration problems and the interpretation of the analysis results in this lecture.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To give information about high-level static and dynamic analysis of continuous parameter systems.
2   To compare showing the difference between the beam theory.
3   To rebuilt and analyze the models of the recent studies in the literature.
4   To apply the different theories of beams to the physical models which has never been and to analyze.
5   To inquire about the results to be obtained from the analysis of the new physical models and to relate with each other.
