Module 2: Finite Element Modelling and Identification of the Seismic Behavior of Structures
Modul 2: Finite-Elemente-Modellierung und Messtechnik
Last Updated: 2026-02-05 15:47:42
Abstract
This module enables participants:-To use the state-of-the-art FEM software and implement the optimal FE modelling techniques for the simulation of the seismic response of existing buildings located in Switzerland-To understand the current methodologies for the identification and monitoring of the seismic behavior of structures located in Switzerland
Objective
The objective of this Module is to disseminate the state of the art in the software and methodologies for the modelling, the simulation and the identification of the seismic behavior of structures. The dissemination of this knowledge will help the Civil Engineers working in Switzerland to increase their efficiency in the simulation and identification of the seismic behavior of structures by the choice of the appropriate Finite Element Modelling software and measuring equipment for every type of structure.
