Course Description 結構分析由於牽涉大量計算,傳統的解法由於電腦的出現而被淘汰。電腦雖然可以為工程師解決分析問題,但如果工程師沒有能力來判定電腦結果,其後果是電腦不僅不能解決問題,還可能會帶來災難。本課程教導學生如何由理論分析到電腦運用,也就是說訓練學生具有全人工(手算),半自動(運用 CAL-90)到全自動(運用SSTAN)之分析能力。

Structural analysis involves a lot of calculations, and traditional solution methods have been eliminated due to the emergence of computers. Although computers can solve analytical problems for engineers, if engineers do not have the ability to judge computer results, the consequence is that computers will not only fail to solve the problem, but may also bring disaster. This course teaches students how to move from theoretical analysis to computer application, which means training students to have full manual (hand calculation), semi-automatic (using CAL-90) to fully automatic (using SSTAN) analysis capabilities.
