The document outlines the syllabus for the first semester M.Tech exam in computational structural mechanics, covering topics like static and kinematic indeterminacy, flexibility and stiffness methods, finite element analysis of beams, frames and trusses, and numerical techniques for solving systems of equations. It lists 10 questions, asking students to solve structural analysis problems using different analytical methods, perform structural modeling, and carry out structural design computations. Short notes may also be asked on topics related to matrix operations and structural analysis algorithms.
