Buckling of Composite Plates\nStudy Goals The students should develop in-depth understanding and insight with regard to the basic mechanics of composite materials and\nstructures, and be able to apply the lectures theories and methods to tackle a variety of basic composite design problems. In\naddition, the students should become able to expand the provided analysis tools towards more advanced solutions for their\ngraduation thesis work. Furthermore, the students should be able to understand and apply related scientific literature.\nAt the end of this course the student will be able to:\n- Understand the basic mechanics of composite materials and structures as listed under \"course content\"\n- Show insight into the theory of progressive damage analysis of composite materials and structures by applying the theory and\nmethods and tools listed under the course contents to solve a variety of basic composite structure design problems\n- Understand the philosophy of reliability analysis and calculate the probability of failure of composite structures by\ncombining numerical methods and the mechanics of composite structures\n- Understand the importance of structural health monitoring (SHM) and design a SHM system for a given composite structure\n- Demonstrate the ability to expand the theory, methods and tools towards more advanced solutions in real practice such as\nstudents may encounter during their thesis\n- Understand, select on relevance, and apply additional theory, tools and methods on composite materials and structures found in\nrelevant scientific literature to (design) problems based on the material taught in class" . .
