4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

During the lectures, the different sections included in the course's syllabus will be developed. Student participation may take place at any time and doubts will be solved at the time. During lectures the problems of the course included in the collections of problems will be solved in a participatory way and discussion of results and resolution methods will be exposed. Practices will be held in the laboratory of the area of mechanics of continuous media and theory of structures and/or computer room. Lab session will be divided in two parts: first, there will be a theoretical introduction along with some exhibition, where the teacher will explain the tasks to be performed using lab equipment; then, student must work on their own and collect data to ellaborate a final report, to be submitted after a few days.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

S1. Attendance to Lab Sessions (5%)

S2. Theoretical and Operational contents (90%)

  • At the final exam, the score of theoretical contents of course must be greater than 3 points out of 10 in order to sum the score with the operational contents. 
  • In particular, the theoretical contents' weigth in the final exam is 30%, while the remaining 70% concerns operational exercices (problems) 

S3. Clarity and fulfillment of laboraty reports and proposed exercises.
