Basics of Mechanical Engineering
Introduction:
This course
introduces the basics and fundamental concepts and applications of mechanical
engineering. The course starts with an introduction to the basic principles of
mechanical drawings such as tolerances, symbols, sections, fasteners etc. The
use of computer aided design and good drawing office practices are also
discussed. After this, the properties and mechanical behavior of engineering
components are presented. Phenomena such as stress and strain, fatigue,
fracture, creep and corrosion are discussed. Mechanical design philosophies are
discussed with the focus on the use of safety factors during the design for
static strength. The candidates will have the opportunity to gain some insight
in the process of mechanical design for manufacturing and production.
Various
manufacturing operations will be discussed, starting with the production of
metal and alloys. The methods to shape metal into its final desired shape, such
as casting, forming, machining, welding etc. will be discussed. The candidates
will be introduced to the use of computerized methods of manufacturing (CNC,
CAM) and also the use of rapid prototyping. Principles of mechanical automation
as it is typically found in industry will be discussed with the focus on the
application of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. There is also a discussion on
electric motors, mechanical actuation systems and common control systems (e.g.
PLCs).
The course
will also introduce the various aspects of pipe technology, including types of
pumps, flanges, gaskets, jointing methods, pipe support and standards. The
basic design and analysis of pipe systems will also be presented. An
introduction of underlying practical principals of thermodynamics will also be
included.
