Ahmad Kueh Beng Hong, associate professor of Department of Civil Engineering of Universiti Malaysia Sarawak, was invited to open a seminar entitled Finite Element Method for Marine reinforced concrete structures. ABAQUS finite element software demonstration) Some postgraduate and undergraduate students in the department of port, waterway and coastal engineering attended the course.
The main purpose of this course is to enable students to understand the axial and bending resistance of structures in one-dimensional finite element modeling. Two dimensional plane elements are used to model the structures described by two different materials. One dimensional finite element modeling of axial and bending resistance of structure; Modeling of crack formation capacity of concrete; Discusses meshing, boundary conditions, interaction issues, and post-processing events, including result detection, mapping, and interpretation, such as various forms of stress and strain diagrams.
Ahmad associate professor has nearly 16 years of teaching and research experience, and his research content is relatively broad, and he is familiar with the use of many other software including ABAQUS, such as Matlab, Maple, ANSYS, Nastran, Minitab, LUSAS, ERCAD, etc. In the course, Ahmad gave students a comprehensive guide on the application of software simulation. After class and after class, the students actively discussed with the experts, and Ahmad, associate professor, patiently and carefully answered the questions raised by the students, and demonstrated them step by step on the computer.
This course not only benefits the students, but also promotes the exchange between the two universities, and provides opportunities for graduate students to broaden their horizons.
