Course content
The aim of this subject is to provide students with practice on designing a marine system by applying previous knowledge. Students are required to evaluate the need of acquiring new knowledge, and how to obtain it. Lectures on new essential topics will be provided. Students will receive tuition on how to carry out a market survey and how to develop, evaluate and choose ideas.
Learning outcome
When finishing this course the student should be able to solve a design task of a marine system within a specified deadline. This involves:
- Perform a market study
- Develop ideas by using different methodologies for solving problems creatively
- Develop relevant design criteria and measures of merit. An evaluation of the projects sustainability must be performed.
- Perform a methodical evaluation of the ideas and concepts based on the design criteria
- Choose the best performing concept
- Select the main dimensions
- Develop their concept in more detail: the arrangement in general and the arrangement of the machinery based on the power requirements of the user profile
- Use software tools actively in the design process
- Solve the presented task in a group
- Organise the group according to the tasks presented, and report the progress
- Document the time used on different task
- Evaluate and document the design and the design process with text, drawings, models and calculations
Learning methods and activities
The students will be working in groups on an assignment. Lectures, supervision and tuition will be provided on the project.
Compulsory assignments
- Exercises
Further on evaluation
The written and oral presentation of the semester project is the basis for the assessment of the course.
The work will be performed in groups. Every member of the project team must contribute equally to the result. All group members will receive the same grade unless a candidate contributes less than his/her fellow team members. In that case the examinator may grade this candidate individually.
