Course Overview

An understanding of structural dynamics is crucial in civil engineering when designing new structures or retrofitting older ones to withstand extreme dynamic loading from earthquakes, hurricanes, and strong winds. It is also crucial when determining the emergence and placement of damage within an existing framework. Foundation of Structural Dynamics certification course is designed by ISAE-SUPAERO - an educational platform that provides courses in aerospace engineering and taught by Yves Gourinat - Professor of Physics of Structures & Biodynamics, which is presented by Coursera. 

Foundation of Structural Dynamics online classes offers 6 hours of digital lessons that are designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of fundamental dynamics and prepare them for potential direct and indirect applications in structural dynamics. With Foundation of Structural Dynamics online training, students will gain a better understanding of the fundamental theorems of structural dynamics and their implications for complicated systems as well as will be taught about concepts involved with digital modeling, kinematics, dynamics, conservations, and more.

What you will learn

Knowledge of engineering

After completing the Foundation of Structural Dynamics online certification, students will be introduced to the principles of structural engineering and will gain a detailed understanding of the concepts involved with structural dynamics. Students will gain an insight into the differences between kinematics, conservations, dynamics, and force. Students will learn about strategies for working with a conical pendulum, discrete systems, and digital modeling. In addition, students will learn about various theorems associated with structural dynamics like Konig's theorem, vertical law, energetical law, Newton’s dynamics, and Newton’s equivalence principles.
