Course content

  • Mechanism design: analysis and synthesis, velocities and accelerations. Difference between kinematics, kinetics and dynamics
  • Introduction to basics of dynamics
  • Vibrations
  • Dynamic loading on shafts, critical frequences, balancing of the shafts
  • Gear wheels

Learning outcome

The candidate can define the basic components that comprise mechanical devices. The candidate is able to draw representative schematic models of mechanical devices suitable for the kinematic and/or dynamic analysis. The candidate is able to calculate the possible motion of the mechanism defined by position, velocity and acceleration (both linear and angular) of its parts. The candidate has an understanding of the consequences of the chosen technology and can asses advantages and disadvantages of alternative solutions and methods.
