Learning Outcomes
The syllabus of Course aim to give the student practical knowledge and relevant design methods in order to calculate the strains and stresses on the parts installed or structural elements in the elastic domain, when these elements are under the influence of external loads. Such as:
OB1: Identify the loads and the type of loads applied to a mechanical element or structural element;
OB2: Identify and analyze the critical points of the mechanical element or structural element;
OB3: Implement simple routines, using informatics tools, to support the design;
OB4: Design mechanical parts or structural components common in machinery or industrial equipment;
OB5: Make a value judgment in the design of ordinary mechanical parts or structural components.
