Teaching
Structural Engineering and the Ocean Environment (CVEN 4520/5520)
This course explores the design of structures for coastal and ocean resilience within the broader context of climate change adaptation. The following subjects will be introduced: coastal and oceanic wave dynamics; hydrodynamic forces from wind-waves and tsunamis on coastal structures; wave attenuation using vegetation; analysis and design of floating structures.
Prerequisites: CVEN 3121/MECH 3043 and MATH 2421

Mechanics of Materials (CVEN 3121/MECH 3043)
This course explores the fundamentals of solid mechanics within the context of structural and mechanical engineering. Topics covered include the analysis of stress and strain, mechanical properties of materials, bending, shear, torsion, and axial response of structural systems including deflection and buckling analysis.
