Engineering Mechanics is a state key specialty, which was renamed
from Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering Structure Mechanics
to Engineering Mechanics in the adjustment of academic disciplines
in 1998. Founded in 1965, it started to enroll graduate students in
1965 and was firstly authorized to offer master’s degree and doctor’s
degree. Nevertheless, it is the key constructing unit of state “211
Project”. Its subordinating giant structural laboratory is equipped
with flash ranging, electrical logging, vibration & computer controlled
structural dynamic & fatigue testing device, rocking testing device,
etc. It presently has four doctor advisors, among which two are technical
committee member of the most authoritative international organization
of ship structural mechanics—the International Ship & Offshore
Structure Congress.
This specialty mainly deals with the research of engineering structures’
mechanics function & designing method, involving the areas of
ship and ocean engineering, aviation and spaceflight, civil construction,
automobile, machine, and other aspects of traffic & transportation.
It has gained many national or ministerial awards of S & T research
achievement, and its research work in mechanics frontiers has reached
the international level. The graduated students of this specialty
mainly work in domestic or foreign research institutes and colleges
as teachers or researchers, many of which have become international
famous scholars.
I. Education Goal
After graduation, students should have a solid knowledge of mathematics,
fundamental theories of mechanics, and systematic specialized knowledge
of international & domestic frontiers; be proficient in reading
specialized documents in foreign language, and in English writing
and conversation; possess the ability of working & organizing
research works independently.
II. Main Research directions
1、Theories and applications of computing structural mechanics
2、Model building of complex structures and safety analyzing
3、Technology & theories of structural experiment
4、Structure fracture, fatigue and its reliability research
5、Structural dynamics
6、Vibration reducing & controlling
III. Length of Schooling and Credits
The duration of full-time doctor’s degree candidates is three
years (altogether 17 or more credits). Semi-sabbatical doctorial
graduates may prolong their schoolings by 1~2 years under permission.
