Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- calculate stress and deformation conditions in complex structures (simplified statically indeterminate constructions), outgoing from models for slim structures
- choosing geometry and dimension from previously mentioned types of structures, with regards to criteria like deformation, plasticizing and tensile strength
- define boundary conditions
- decide the used models applicability as well as executing plausibility assessment of made approximations and acquired results
- solve problems with methods for fatigue and fracture mechanics
Literature and preparations
Specific prerequisites
- completed courses ML1201 and ML1000
- approved module statics in ML1101
Recommended prerequisites

Examination and completion
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Grading scale
Examination
- TEN1 - Written examination, 5.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
- ÖVN1 - Exercises, 2.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination

Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
