Teaching and Learning Methods In lectures we combine the expository and demonstrative methods with the interrogative and participative method as a way to encourage students to become more active agents of their learning. Classes are supported, whenever appropriate, in computer readable form, which includes the use of appropriate software to the topics addressed. The theoretical-practical lessons rely on worksheets prepared in accordance with the following objectives: i. consolidation and internalization of theoretical concepts; ii. application of theoretical knowledge in practice; iii. acquisition of techniques for solving problems involving the concepts defined theoretically; iv. developing the skills of deductive reasoning. Thus, the exercises are of diverse nature, combining theoretical application questions with practical questions. Questions are either presented in an open or semi-open form or are multiple choice questions, according to the objectives of each one. In theoretical-practical classes and tutorials both collaborative and independent work are used. There will be a constant interaction between teacher and students, always with the aim of encouraging and helping each student to establish his personal method of learning.

Assessment The assessment will be made in the final exam. Students may be exempted by prior assessment. Two partial tests will be carried out: These tests have weights 50%. Each test includes, approximately, the matter of three chapters. To exempt the final exam, students must perform the two tests and obtain an average rating greater than or equal to 9,5 (with minimum score of 8 in the two tests). To obtain a final grade greater than or equal to 17 marks, both in frequency and in the final exam, students may be required to carry out further proof. After the final and the appeal exams there will be an additional proof for students who have obtained ratings between 8 and 9,4 or any student who, for some particular reason, it is considered desirable or necessary to accomplish it. Students may also request the preparation of this proof if they wish to improve the exam grade.

Teaching and Learning Methods Lectures: Is done a detailed exposition of the various themes of the syllabus with analysis of examples. The slides presented in these lessons will be provided to students. Problem-solving classes: Will be solved exercises on the topics already covered in lecture. Students will also be challenged to solve problems that may or may not have direct application in their field of study, under the guidance of teachers, which will encourage discussion of the used methodologies and on the results achieved. Tutorials: a homework is proposed to students that should be held during the week and delivered at the following tutorial. The homework is discussed in these classes and the solution is achieved.

Assessment 1) During the academic activities Periodic component: three tests, one for chapter. To the calculus of the final grade, only the i tests (with i = 1, 2, 3) whose NP_i classification has been equal or greater than 8 values (scale 0 to 20) are considered. Continuous component: evaluation of homework delivered or done in tutorial classes. This component is optional and is graded by N_OT, in a 0 to 20 scale.

2) Exam: normal examination or examination of appeal. The exam consists of three parts, each of which corresponding to a chapter. The student will perform the complete exam or only the i parts of the exam (i = 1, 2 or 3) in which obtained a NP_i score below 8 values. The final grade, which we denote by NF, is given by: NF = max { NF_C, NF_P } where

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


NF_P = (NP_1 + NP_2+ NP_3) / 3 NF_C = 0,9 NF_P + 0,1 N_OT with NP_ i = Classification of part i, with i = 1, 2, 3 and NP_i > or = to 8 values N_OT = Classification of Tutorials. The student has approval in the course if the final grade NF is equal or greater than 10 values. Otherwise is reproved.

Objectives It is a fundamental objective of this course to initiate students in modeling and in computational representation of different kind of problems. The increasing importance of those areas in the technology and in engineering, largely supported by the advances registered in the computational area, justify this concern.

This curriculum presents two modules that are crucial in order to reach that goal. They are: scientific computing and graph theory. They will be taught, both, using a computational approach.

The concepts introduced and the examples used are specially selected to allow an easy adaptation to the subject and to encourage students to explore new situations, exercising their skills of analysis, synthesis and abstraction. At the same time the students has the opportunity to acquire and / or strength their knowledge and the need to overcome the challenges that are presented through some specific exercises. Recommended Previous Knowledge Contents Introduction to the scientific computing: numerical representation, introduction to the theory of errors, polynomial interpolation, solving nonlinear equations, introduction to numerical uni and multidimensional optimization.

Introduction to graph theory: some basic insights and definitions, plane graphs, trees, Eulerian and Hamiltonian circuits, computational representations of graphs, some structural and operational problems on graphs. Teaching and Learning Methods Lectures are based on the principle of the "Learning by Example", adapted to each type of the planned classes. The curriculum of this course is presented in an high practical way, thus transforming the practical lectures in intense sessions dedicated to problem solving in an environment of computational and mathematical programming. Assessment The approval in the discipline is achieved by obtaining a final grade (NF) of ten (10), or more. Duly enrolled students may succeed by one of the following ways:

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Normal assessment

According to the curricula, evaluation is also separable into two modules and there is a moment of assessment for each designated by Part 1 (worth 60% of the final with a minimum score of 3 values) and Part 2 (worth 40% of rating final (8 points) with a minimum grade of two values), respectively.

Calculation of the final results of the direct sum of each party.

Special Assessment

Moments of evaluation under this framework are contained in a proof-theoretical practice only, held on a computer.

Objectives The main objective of this course is to initiate students to the fundamentals of Theory of Structures, namely to the determination of support reactions, internal forces and displacements in statically indeterminate structures, using the principle of virtual work and force method of analysis. Moreover, an introduction to non linear material behaviour (rigid-plastic analysis and incremental elastic-perfectly plastic analysis) and a simplified seismic structural analysis is also presented in the context of Eurocodes principles and rules. Skills to accomplish: capacity to use scientific and technical literature; collect, select, analyse and put in context information; organize and plan working tasks; recognise personal capacity limits; develop self-learning capacity and use of reasoning; equate, interpret and solve problems; improve analysis capacity and critical reasoning.


Contents Brief history of structural systems. Displacement assessment in statically determinate structures. Strain energy. Principle of virtual work (PVW). Betti and Maxwell theorems. Force method of analysis. Determination of support reactions and internal forces in result of: member and nodal loads, temperature variation, support settlement and flexible supports. Kinematic, static and uniqueness theorems. Rigid-plastic analysis and incremental elastic-perfectly plastic analysis of framed structures. Single-degree-of-freedom linear oscillator: stiffness, frequency and natural vibration period, damping and resonance. Equations of motion. Multiple-degree-of-freedom linear oscillator. Fundamental frequency. Response spectrum. Behaviour factor. Seismic structural analysis of regular structures using simplified Rayleigh method. Eurocode 8 context. Influence lines. Symmetry simplifications.

Teaching and Learning Methods To capture student attention and commitment during the course, at the end of each class a small practical problem is presented, and each student must solve it by himself (they have the problem final solution results, but not the resolution). Tutorial classes are mostly for students that were unable to find the correct solution. In tutorial classes, students are divided in several groups that will share the same classroom were the problems are discussed with the guidance of the teachers. Three individual practical and more complex problems are presented to be solved in three small time windows. The university moodle application is used for work support. The objective of these problems is to improve self-learning acquisition.

Assessment • Continuous assessment TP – Three practical assignments (TP1,TP2 e TP3, corresponding to 4 + 7 + 9 = 20 values). AF – One final test corresponding to 20 values (is required a grade greater or equal 8 values) Final grade: best value between the results of AF or MD = 0,25 × (TP1+TP2+TP3) + 0,75 × AF Students are approved if the final grade is greater than or equal to 10 values. • Normal Examination Period, or the Appeal Examination Period Written exam. Students are approved if the final grade is greater than or equal to 10 values. Final grade above 16 values must be defended in an oral exam with a jury composed of at least two teachers.

Teaching and Learning Methods Theoretical Lectures expositive and using application examples. Practical Lectures where the teacher complements the theoretical teaching, solving some exercises. Tutoring classes where students solve exercises under the guidance of the teacher.

Assessment In tests and exams the student must obtain, in the theoretical part, a minimum of 30% of the total score of this part. Continuous assessment will be carried out by performing two tests. The student's final grade is obtained by averaging the two tests, whose minimum individual required classification is 7.5 values, resulting in the approval success, if their average rate is equal to or higher than 9.5 values. There will be a final exam during the Normal Examination Period, the student will be approved if the obtained rating is equal to or higher than 9.5 values. Two additional examinations are also done: Appeal exam and Special exam. Students with ratings above value 16, will need to defended that rate performing an oral exam.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Assessment Written global test (teste global) will be conducted at the class ending period. This test will be regarded as the theoretical component (componente teórica) of the ending period assessment.

A practical component (componente prática), comprising a Practical Work (PW) and a Monograph, completes the ending period assessment.

The required classification for each of the above referred components of the assessment will be weighed as follows:

1. Global test or exam – 50%;

2. Practical Work (PW) – 35%;

3. Monograph (SHW) – 15%.

The minimum evaluation result for any of the assessment components is 9.5 points (Scale 1 to 20). The global test (theoretical component) is presented in two parts (part I and part II), with equal assessment weight (scale 1 to 20) and the final note is the resultant average. For part I, consultation is not allowed. In part II consultation is allowed. Any result of evaluation, less than 7.5 points will be considered insufficient.

Likewise, the evaluation of the practical component (Practical Work and Monograph) can’t be less than 9.5 points. The final result for the evaluation of the practical component will be obtained by weighted average (Practical Work 70%; Monograph 30%).

Written exam will be required for the students whose previous assessment (teste global) failed or were not done, and will be undertaken in the very same terms of the theoretical component aforementioned.

For logistical reasons, it is required pre-registration of students in the written tests with 2 days in advance.

Teaching and Learning Methods The topics are presented on the lessons, always with the support of real situations. The approach is made using small calculators and manual drawing in order to acquire sensibility for the results obtained. The students are challenged to make all the problems with new data.

Structural engineering is considered very important, in special the equilibrium of sections, elements and the whole structure.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Assessment The evaluation is made by exam because it’s not reasonable to divide the topics, and because there is a strong link between all them, in consistence with learning/teaching methodology.

The first date is at the end of the semester, during the lessons time, and the others are submitted to the evaluation calendar.

also assists the students in order to clarify their doubts and answer the any questions, related to the subjects under study that may arise.

Assessment Written global test (teste global) will be conducted at the class ending period. This test will be regarded as the theoretical component (componente teórica) of the ending period assessment.

A practical component (componente prática), comprising a Practical Work (PW) and a Monograph, completes the ending period assessment.

The required classification for each of the above referred components of the assessment will be weighed as follows:

1. Global test or exam – 50%;

2. Practical Work (PW) – 50%

The minimum evaluation result for any of the assessment components is 9,5 points (scale 1 to 20). The global test (theoretical component) is presented in two parts (part I and part II), with equal assessment weight (scale 1 to 20) and the final note is the resultant average. For part I, consultation is not allowed. In part II consultation is allowed. Any result of evaluation, less than 7,5 points will be considered insufficient.

Likewise, the evaluation of the practical component (Practical Work) can’t be less than 9,5 points. Written exam will be required for the students whose previous assessment (teste global) failed or were not done, and will be undertaken in the very same terms of the theoretical component aforementioned.

The minimum marks for theoretical and practical works is 9,5.

b) The student can get approval (by Exame), if in the exam of Normal Examination Period, or in the Appeal Examination Period the note is equal or higher than 9,5.
