94315 Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering design
Danish title: Maskinkonstruktion 1

Type: Language: D
Credit points: 5 point
Offered by: Department of Applied Engineering Design and Production (AKP)
No credit points with: 95233
Compulsory: 94300. 94305. 94310
Recommended semester: 3rd semester
Examination: Evaluation of report and oral presentation (13 point scale )
Contact person: Palle Ellevang, AKP, Building 358, Tel. +45 4525 5678
Aim: The aim of the course is to enable the students to:
- use a systematic approach to engineering design
- use the fundamental principles and methodologies in designing a fairly simple product concerning function, stress and strain, assembling, disassembling and manufacturing of the elements.
- communicate the results of a design project in reports and drawings in a professional way.
Contents: The phases of the design process and techniques for analysis of problems, techniques for synthesis. The problems are related to Maschine Component Design (clutches, brakes etc.). A major part of the course will be the design of a product based on a specific working principle. the design will be supported by use of a 2D-CAD system.
