Goals and objectives
It is increasingly important to properly address impact problems, such as a collision of cars and trains, shocks of falling objects, a collision of scattered debris with typhoons and tornadoes, and an earthquake, for ensuring a safe living in society. A behavior of a structure when receive an impact load is different from that of a static load. It is, therefore, necessary to accurately understand the difference between the two for conducting the safety design of structure.
 The objective of this lecture is to understand the impact phenomenon as the propagation of stress wave. In particular, the course focuses on the stress analysis based on the one-dimensional stress wave propagation with elasticity.
Prerequisites
It is desirable to be interested in a safety evaluation and design of products and to understand the basics of strength of materials, linear algebra and analysis.

Message for students
有限要素解析など,数値解析ツールの大幅な進歩によって,現在では複雑な衝撃問題を,誰もが簡単に扱うことができるようになっている.しかし,そこで得られた解を正しく解釈するためには,衝撃現象を理解し,その問題解決のための知識を習得することが要求される.衝撃問題の場合,荷重は応力波となって固体の中を伝播する,すなわち波動の問題として考えることができることを,この講義を通じて理解し,数値解析の結果を正しく判断するための基礎知識を身につけてほしい.
