    The goal
    To understand fundamental concepts of continuum mechanics and its applications in engineering. Develop ability and creativity to independently formulate and solve engineering problems: formulation of mechanical, mathematical, and calculation models, and discussion of results.
    The outcome
    Student is able to analyze and solve basic problems of the continuum mechanics. Student is able to continue independent research work for the modeling of complex structures.
    Contents
