Modern MATLAB for Teaching Civil Engineering – 5 Things You Need to Know
Hadi Khabbaz, School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Technology Sydney
Overview
In this presentation we’ll present the new interface and workflows that makes MATLAB an easy and productive environment for teaching Civil Engineering concepts. We’ll show a collection of features and workflows that reveal the usage choices that modern MATLAB provides – choices that span a “click and point” user experience, all the way through to the “interactive” document interface provided by the new LIVE editor. Combined, these usage choices enhance the clarity with which engineering concepts can be presented in the classroom.
At the end of this presentation, Associate Professor Hadi Khabbaz (from the University of Technology Sydney) will demonstrate how he has used the MATLAB app-designer and live editor for solving geotechnical engineering topics, particularly computing total settlement of foundations and the rate of settlement with time considering various conditions.
