Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will be familiarized with basic methods used in machine design. The emphasis is laid on machine parts used for the transmission of torque.

Prerequisites

Students are required to have the knowledge of Fundamentals of Design, Material Science and of Mechanics of solids, which they have obtained in their previous study at FME BUT. Also the knowledge obtained from the course Machine Design - Machine Elements is assumed.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Terms of the course-unit credit: active participation at seminars, written solution of all assignments, good evaluation of basic knowledge tests. Examination requirements: exam evaluation includes 40% of the assessment from seminars and 60 % of multiple choice test assessment. Any part of the exam must not be evaluated by F grade. The test is conducted using electronic testing system.

Aims

The aim of the course is to inform students about approaches of machine design – transformation ideas into real technical objects (machines). The course extends the knowledge obtained from the course Machine design - Machine Elements and it is focused on analytical solutions of machine parts intended for torque transmition from driving machine to driven machine. Especially mechanical gears are solved (toothed gears, chain gears, belt gears, cable gears, friction gears).

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Participation in lectures is recommended, participation at seminars is checked and recorded. Two absences are allowed.

Recommended optional programme components
