This course begins with the foundations of 3D elasticity, fluid and elastic wave equations, elastic and plastic waves in rods and beams, waves in plates, and dynamics and acoustics of cylindrical shells. The course considers acoustic fluids effects such as radiation and scattering by submerged plates and shells, and interaction between structural elements. Finally, it covers the response of plates and shells to high-intensity loads, dynamic plasticity and fracture, and structural damage caused by implosive and impact loads.

Lecture-based instruction for one and a half hours per session, twice weekly. Students are advised to spend an average of nine hours per week on course work outside of the classroom.
13.811 is split into two segments: structural dynamics for the first half of the semester and acoustics for the second half.
NOTE: Only the acoustics component is available on this site. The structural dynamics component has not yet been incorporated into OCW.
