Norwegian steel construction association invited Prof. D. Beg to have on 5th April 2011 a one day course on the design of plated structures (mainly slender plate and box girders for bridges) for Norwegian structural engineers. The main topic of the course was advanced stability problems, including stiffened plates, interactive stability, etc. The invitation followed the publication of the book Design of plated structures, published by Ernst&Sohn - a Wiley Company and ECCS in 2010 (with three coauthors from Germany and France).
F.18 Transfer of new know-how to direct users (seminars, fora, conferences)
Developed symbolic-numeric systems AceGen and AceFEM for automatic code generation and FEM analysis are in Slovenia and in Europe used as basic tools in research projects from various technical fields including civil engineering, biomechanics, nontechnology and space technology. New methods, based on newly developed tools, have been presented at several universities and institutes around Europe.
