虚拟实验在建筑结构抗震课程教学中的应用

建筑结构抗震课程是土木工程专业学生本科阶段的一门专业课程。该课程理论内容多,较为枯燥,教学中存在真实实验操作困难、"重理论,轻实践"等问题。对此,将交互性强、可操作性高的虚拟实验引入建筑结构抗震课程教学,并与传统真实实验进行对比分析,阐述虚拟实验的重要性与必要性。以隔震结构为例,提出可供参考、借鉴的虚拟实验设计思路。从问卷调查获取的反馈信息来看,虚拟实验具有良好的教学效果,应合理利用虚拟实验的优势,将其与土木工程专业课程教学融合,注重交互式开发。应注意的是虚拟实验仅作为真实实验的补充,不能忽视传统的真实实验。

Application of virtual experiments in seismic design of building structures teaching

As one of the courses for civil engineering majors, seismic design of building structures is difficult because of its complicated and uninteresting contents. During the teaching activities, there are some problems, such as the difficulty of real experiments, the neglect of practice and so on. Based on this issue, virtual experiments with high interactivity and maneuverability is applied to seismic design of building structures teaching, compared with the traditional real experiments, the paper analyzes the importance and necessity of virtual experiments in this course. After that, taking seismic isolation technology as an example, design ideas about virtual experiments offering reference for others are put forward. Virtual experiment is favorable, it is necessary to make use of virtual experiments in civil engineering teaching and pay attention to interactivity. It should be realized that real experiments are also important because virtual experiments are just supplement to real experiments.
