This course teaches you all the fundamentals of dynamic stress assessments of piping systems.
By means of presentations, demonstrations and discussions of cases you will learn the theory, physics and computational methods applied in modern day pipe stress assessments of dynamic phenomena.
Topics such as model analysis, Dynamic Load Factor (DLF), spectrum analysis and time history analysis are discussed in detail. Comparisons are made between the different techniques that allow you to judge which one is most suitable for your situation.
The course consists of 4 online modules based on video content. You receive 1-year unlimited access to the course and the discussions forum. This allows you to perform modules again when you need to refresh knowledge for your work projects.

Learn by doing.
The course is mainly based on video content: video lectures and video software demonstrations. English subtitles are available and videos can be viewed as many times as desired. The video lectures help you to grasp the important technical concepts and in the video demonstrations the instructor uses the software and discusses all the steps and actions. You are recommended to follow the steps of the instructor in the software to optimize your learning curve.
Exercises are available in the form of multiple-choice quizzes to help you grasp technical concepts and in the form of .pdf-files with instructions to build and analyze different models and answer related questions. Video demonstrations of the exercises are available.
This course is self-paced and is not subject to specific dates. The course contains 4 modules with a total of 3 hours of content which can be performed at your own pace. A Personal Certificate will be provided to participants if they finish the course within the first month after purchase. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.
