Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will learn the basics of the function and application of selected machine parts, especially machine parts intended for transmission of normal force and energy absorption as well as the design in terms of most frequent limit states.

Prerequisites

Students are required to have the knowledge of fundamentals of design, material sciences and of mechanics of solids, which they have obtained in the previous part of their study at FME BUT.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Terms of the course-unit credit:
-written solution of all assignments (maximal number of points is 5)
-two check tests (maximal number of points is 15).
Maximal number of points obtained from seminar is 20. Minimal number of points necessary for course-unit credit is 10.
Examination requirements:
-electronic testing system. Test with possibility of answers selection is based on lectures and tutorial topics. (maximal number of points obtained from test is 80, minimal number of points for passing the test is 40.)
Total number of points is sum of points obtained from tutorial and points obtained from exam test. Minimal number of points is 50 and maximal number of points is 100. Resulting classification is made according ECTS.
