土木工程专业的计算力学教育

Computational mechanics education in civil engineering

力学是土木工程不可缺少的理论基础,土木工程专业本科教学主要开设的力学类必修课程包括理论力学、材料力学和结构力学三门专业基础课,这些课程的内容主要是经典力学的理论解析解.现代力学学科的发展状况表明,计算力学已经发展成为与理论、实验并列的力学研究三大支柱之一.计算力学已经与土木工程紧密地联系在一起,对土木工程学科的发展和工程应用有着非常重要的影响.因此,土木工程本科教学开展计算力学教育是很有必要的.

Mechanics is indispensable theoretical basis of civil engineering. For civil engineering undergraduate teaching, the obligatory basic courses of mechanics are Theoretical Mechanics, Strength of Materials, and Structural Mechanics, whose main contents include classical analytical solution about mechanics. The development of modern mechanics shows that theory, experiment and computation have been developed to be three pillars for mechanics. Computational mechanics has been firmly integrated with civil engineering and plays an important role in the development and application of civil engineering. Therefore, it is necessary for undergraduate teaching of civil engineering to offer the education of computational mechanics.
