- Exercise 1 – application of CAD (computer-aided design) modelling in product development of civil and mechanical engineering parts. Modelling a typical steel civil structure.
- Exercise 2 – application of CAE (computer-aided engineering) with FEM (finite element method) in mechanical and civil structures. Optimization of structure elements and their connections.
- Exercise 3 – application of CAD in the product development focused on serial manufacturing.
- Exercise 4 – application of software in selection, characterization and modelling of materials for mechanical and civil engineering applications.
- Exercise 5 – generative product design or integration of quality assurance tool into modern product development process.
- Interactive tests and conclusions.
