Structural Design with FEM

Understand fundamental theory of finite element method and identify various failure mechanisms of metallic structure and its connection with relevant design standards. Design a ship-shore crane according to the Dutch Standards (NEN 2017 to 2023) and control your design with the use of a finite element model (Femap and SDC Verifier)
