Course content

3D Modeling Module: 2D and 3D technical drawing using a computer. Introduction to the most common drawing commands and functions. Drawing of new models and editing of previously drawn material. Plan, facade, and section drawings. Printing and plotting of drawings. Additive manufacturing. Welds, sheet metal manufacturing, parametric modeling, etc.

Simulation Module: Finite Element Methods (FEM) in general; theory, boundary conditions, and element types (solid and sheet elements, beams, and trusses) with several degrees of freedom (DOF). Selection of optimal designs for deformation and strength. Static strength calculation, thermal analysis, truss analysis, static indeterminate constructions, vibration analysis, and frequency calculations.

Learning outcome

Knowledge:

  • The candidate has competence in understanding the design process from idea to 3D model with the use of 3D modeling and variant construction.
  • The candidate has the competence to use element methods in general Skills.
  • The candidate can realize a product as a 3D model.
  • The candidate can identify, plan and execute simulations, as well as analyze, interpret and use emergent data, both independently and in groups.

General competence:

  • The candidate has insight into the technical consequences of selected solutions within his / her field of expertise and can assess the disadvantages and advantages of the chosen methods.

Further on evaluation

Portfolio assessment is the basis for the grade in the course. The portfolio includes one individual report (40%) to assess fundamental knowledge of modeling and simulation, and one group report (60%) to assess advanced knowledge and skills. The results for the parts are given in %-scores, while the entire portfolio is assigned a letter grade. For a re-take of an examination, all assessments during the course must be re-taken.1) The individual report will be delivered at the end of lectures covering fundamental knowledge. 2) The group report will be delivered at the end of the semester.
