Course Objectives The course covers Machine Design Methodology; strategies, objectives, analysis, synthesis. Machine kinematic design, stress analysis, fracture and fatigue, design for strength, design for rigidity. Design optimization, numerical methods. Applications of design algorithm for several machine elements. The objective of this course is to teach computational approaches for machine design optimization, design objectives, design variables and design constraints for various machine elements, application of design by VBA algorithm and CAD.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • The students will have the ability to 1. Analyze the response of different machines, components and structures under various kind of loadings 2. Define a physical problem of machine design as an optimization problem by defining objective functions, constraints, etc. 3. Conduct computer aided kinematic analysis 4. Conduct computer aided stress analysis 5. Design machine elements under dynamic loading
Course Content The objective of this course is to improve the research and communication skills of students early in their graduate program to help them better plan, conduct and present their research and thesis work.
