Exam schedule:
|
F2-A (maj 29 2002) Each team must deliver the report to the teacher before 17.00 at the F2-A day. |
Recommended semester: 7th - 9th semester |
Scope and form: Lectures and laboratory work on teams 1 afternoon pr. week. Lectures in 2A and exercises in 2B |
Evaluation: Approval of coursework/reports
The report will be evaluated based on these criterions: 1) Nowelty and usefulness of the system developed. 2) Technical-scientific level of the work presented. 3) Complexity, comprehensiveness and level of completion. 4) Report quality. |
Examination: 13-scale |

Aim: The purpose of the course is to enable the student to design and verify complex Aero-space instrumentation systems. The course emphasise standard design drivers as quality, precision, longevity, robustness and industrial norms and standards. To enable a conceptual verification, the students are required to realize critical parts of their designs in the laboratory. The theories, techniques and methods learned are common to aerospace, medico-techniques, military electronics, robotics etc. |
Contents: The course is sectioned into two parts: The class hours, where the theory, standards and methods are taught, and a laboratory part, where teams of students form study-groups, that solves practical assignments. These assignments are all derived from the international satellite projects in which the department participate, why it is the intention, that the designs are to be used for later missions. Therefore, the assignments includes both system engineering, robustness and space-hardning aspects as well as instrumentation aspects. |
Remarks: At the start of the semester, the students will be presentet for a problem complex, i.e. the topic of that year. The class will, be asked to form teams that together cover the field in such a way that the problem complex is well covered. Each student will join a team based on experience, personal preferences, education and skills. |
