  • use a finite element programme to solve multidimensional elastic problems
  • develop a product's geometry and function considering the FE analysis
  • identify and apply appropriate modelling strategies considering FE analysis
  • describe how finite element programmes are structured and which input that must given, to solve a hands-on problem
  • compare, evaluate and document the results of FE analyses
